NUS

The National University of Singapore (NUS) and Google are embarking on a new strategic collaboration to accelerate applied artificial intelligence (AI) research and nurture skilled AI practitioners.

The new program will be a comprehensive incubator program designed to bridge the gap between scientific research and market application. It will support startup teams by helping them refine their initial ideas, validate market needs, and design robust business models through a structured program framework.

Temasek, NTU and NUS will also provide the start-ups with access to their networks of businesses and mentors. At least two start-ups will be launched annually and they will be provided with entrepreneurial mentorship, funding, and support to position them for long-term global success.
