A new lab has opened in Singapore with the aim to drive the development and deployment of smart cities applications within the island-state. Backed by an investment of up to SG$10 million ($7.36 million) over three years, the Smart Urban Co-Innovation Lab has already garnered the support of 30 global industry players, including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft, and Schneider Electric.
The research and development facility would help bring together players across the ecosystem, such as local tech startups, systems integrators, and international enterprises to “co-create solutions for smart cities, from ideation to testing to commercialisation”. Launched on Wednesday, the smart urban development lab is led by real estate group CapitaLand and supported by government agencies Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) and Enterprise Singapore.
