Microsoft, Singlife push for AI adoption amongst insurers

Singlife is the first in its industry to collaborate with Microsoft for the programme in ASEAN.

Singlife and Microsoft announced a partnership to boost generative artificial intelligence (AI) adoption amongst insurance startups.

The Singaporean insurer is the first from its industry to team up with Microsoft for the ASEAN Startups Programme targeted toward starting insurtechs.

Further, the programme aims to identify startups for the Singlife Connect Plus (SCP) program, an advanced version of Singlife's accelerator and venture-building initiative.

Microsoft will provide technical guidance, execution support, workshops on applying Generative AI, access to Microsoft Founders Hub and partners like OpenAI, LinkedIn, and Github. 

Startups selected through this collaboration will also be nominated for the Microsoft Pegasus program.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
