During the opening ceremony, Dr. Tan See Leng, Minister for Manpower and Minister-in-charge of Energy and Science & Technology, emphasised Singapore’s dedication to enhancing its IP and IA ecosystem. He noted the importance of protecting ideas and fostering collaboration amidst the challenges posed by emerging technologies like generative AI and the current geopolitical climate.

The event facilitates the exchange of ideas and the formation of partnerships among business leaders, innovators, and investors. IPOS is committed to strengthening Singapore’s IA/IP regime, aiding enterprises in unlocking value from their IA, and expanding collaboration with ASEAN and global partners to solidify Singapore’s status as a trusted hub for innovation.
