At #SwitchSG in #Singapore, industry leaders from around the world came together to showcase advancements in innovation and startups. #Japan made a significant impact, with JETRO Startup agency highlighting various regions and cities. #SouthKorea, #Germany, and the #UK also showcased notable advancements.
I had the opportunity to attend #SwitchSG at the Sands Expo & Convention Center Inc in #Singapore 🇸🇬, a renowned event for innovation and startups, where industry leaders from across the globe come together to showcase advancements.
This year, #Japan 🇯🇵 made a strong impact with the JETRO Startup agency coordinating multiple booths spotlighting different regions, especially #Tokyo, under the theme “SusHi Tech Tokyo | Sustainable High City Tech Tokyo.” #SouthKorea 🇰🇷 was not far behind, showcasing its own innovations and advancements.
#Europe 🇪🇺 also had a powerful presence, particularly with #Germany 🇩🇪 and the #UK 🇬🇧 making memorable impressions. Regional and city representation stood out, with #Flanders, hashtag#Brussels, and #Catalonia, represented by #Barcelona, a global leader in innovation and the future host of the Smart City Expo World Congress 2024.
I also reconnected with representatives from Agorize, a dynamic startup from #France 🇫🇷 specialising in global innovation challenge, including #Slingshot 🇸🇬 at this event. Having collaborated with them on a business mission in #Japan 🇯🇵, it was a pleasure to catch up and explore new developments in their offerings.
While the event was not primarily focused on smart and sustainable cities, it provided a nice platform to broaden my network and gain insights, further strengthening my visibility and expertise in #Asia 🌏.
I had a fantastic time in #Singapore 🇸🇬, a truly unique and innovative city-state that stands out on the global stage.
