We Bring Together Great Minds Across the Ecosystem to Discuss, Share and Inspire Ideas of Innovation in Deep Tech

Following the Singapore Government’s announcement on 7 Feb raising the DORSCON level of COVID-19 to Orange, and in consultation with our partners, SGInnovate has been suspending our physical events and large workshops until further notice. In the meantime, we are introducing online events and virtual initiatives to continue sustaining ecosystem engagements and discussions on Deep Tech.

We are confident that all will be well, and will keep you posted as soon as it is deemed safe to resume hosting our physical events and workshops.

The Jumpstart Workshop is the first module of the Deep Learning Developer Series, a prerequisite to the advanced Deep Learning modules. It goes through both the overall concepts and techniques for not only understanding but building a variety of Deep Learning models for tabular data, image data, audio data and text data.

Topics: Artificial Intelligence / Deep Learning / Machine Learning / Robotics

The Entrepreneurial Scientist brings research out of the lab to start a business. The challenges come hard and fast – market and early adopter identification; user needs specification; product development; pilots or trials; go-to-market preparations; funding; critical hiring at the initial phase, etc.

Topics: MedTech / HealthTech / BioTech, Investments, Startups, Quantum Technologies

The worldwide effort for the development of Quantum Technology has accelerated. However, there are still many challenges to developing Quantum Information Technology for implementation in a real-world environment and as a solution to real problems.

In the context of Singapore’s 30 by 30 ambition to produce more food locally, much more resources such as energy, water and nutrients will be needed. In the same vein, in the Netherlands, the aim is to have a carbon neutral agricultural system by 2050, with a reduction and maximally efficient use of raw materials. Both countries will have to innovate and use new technologies to minimise the use of resources and nutrients.

If this global pandemic has taught us anything, it is that digital healthcare solutions are increasingly becoming a mainstream offering. Key services like telehealth, clinical decision support and digital access to personal medical records, are just some examples that healthcare is moving away from being a predominantly encounter-based (and physical) care model.

Synthetic biology is the principle of synthesising DNAs and designing genetic circuitry to enhance or repurpose cellular functions. In recent years, advancements in this field of science have expanded the capabilities of microbial fermentation to beyond just brewing and food processing. Through microbial and mammalian cell engineering, bio-manufacturing has been repurposed for a wide variety of end products from fragrance to pharmaceuticals.

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted global food supply chains and serves as a stark reminder of the importance of food security. Singapore imports over 90% of our food need from over 170 countries, and we are vulnerable to shifts in the global supply chain. The nation’s “30 by 30” goal – to produce 30% of its nutritional needs by 2030 – aims to strengthen our food resilience by developing urban agriculture and aquaculture, and pushing innovations in food science and technology. To ensure the sustainability of our food system, food consumption and waste management are also key pieces in building a circular food economy.

In the wake of the pandemic, companies all over the world are revisiting their talent management strategies. It is even more critical for the startup ecosystem, which is always looking to optimise costs while creating substantial value. This session is designed to give insights into the talent and rewards trends that have emerged in the past few months – shedding light on both global and regional perspectives on managing talent creatively. Experts from AON and seasoned HR practitioners will also share their real-life experiences and reflections on how startups are looking to reshape their plans and goals, to build organisational resilience and drive value.

As the global need to innovate and to sustainably feed our planet becomes an imperative, science and technology will be essential in helping to solve this global food challenge. And one of these solutions could be with 3D printing technology, which is not new, though it is usually associated with creating materials to build cars, planes and houses. But after Russian cosmonauts printed meat in space in October — showing how useful the applications of 3D printing can be — food printing has gained traction.
