SAP Labs, NUS launch programme to train AI researchers

The programme aims to recruit and train nine researchers by 2030.

SAP Labs Singapore and the National University of Singapore (NUS) launched the Industrial Postgraduate Programme (IPP) to train artificial intelligence (AI) researchers.

Through the IPP, supported by the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB), SAP Labs Singapore plans to recruit and train nine researchers for its AI team in Singapore by the end of 2030.

New researchers hired through the IPP will also be recruited from NUS and will work on new research areas.

“SAP’s collaboration with NUS through the Industrial Postgraduate Programme will further strengthen the pipeline of AI talent in Singapore. It is a tangible example of an industry-academia partnership that equips our researchers with deep research capabilities to develop innovative AI solutions that are enterprise-centric,” Chan Ih-ming, executive vice president of EDB said.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
