企发局与业界推“太空加速计划” 张志贤:助新创公司涉足亚太市场

LianHe ZaoBao, 7 Feb 2020 新加坡企业发展局与本地公司合作推动“太空加速计划”,协助新创公司涉足亚太市场。 国务资政兼国家安全统筹部长张志贤昨天(2月6日)在环球太空与科技大会上致辞时指出,新加坡企业发展局与本地公司Singapore Space and Technology Limited合作推动的“太空加速计划”,将协助新创公司进入其他市场和获得资金,同时获得国际专家支持。 张志贤说,电脑科技日新月异,商业模式也日趋创新。这不仅使太空科技和上太空更容易,成本也越来越低,同时为较小的国家如新加坡创造更多空间。小国可透过研究与开发或设计政策来推动行业增长,商家也能搭上这股风潮,推出太空相关服务。 新加坡太空与科技协会也将与新加坡土地管理局、推广全球导航卫星系统的国际机构Multi-GNSS Asia,携手举办今年的全球导航卫星系统区域论坛,推动相关应用和计划。 来自全球公司、政府机构、新创公司的逾700人和超过30个参展商出席在新加坡君悦酒店举办的这场两天研讨会。 Link to article
