SINGAPORE’S AI strategy is accelerating the pace at which companies feel able to operationalise artificial intelligence. The country has launched four National AI missions and introduced a National AI Impact Programme designed to support 10,000 SMEs, among various initiatives.

Clear policy direction, growing investment and a maturing ecosystem are giving businesses a clearer path to move AI into regional operations.

That momentum is set to continue, with 72 per cent of businesses in Singapore planning to deploy agentic AI in several operational areas within two years, said Deloitte.
