China-Singapore Guangzhou Knowledge City (CSGKC) has unveiled three new partnerships with Singapore institutions during the 16th Singapore-Guangdong Collaboration Council meeting. These collaborations aim to enhance cooperation in healthcare, artificial intelligence (AI), and talent development between Singapore and China.
The Singapore University of Social Sciences will collaborate with CSGKC on senior care solutions through Aged+ Living Labs. Meanwhile, the Singapore Institute of Technology will focus on smart healthcare technologies, applied research, robotics, and care delivery. Business China will facilitate connections between Singapore-China businesses and innovation communities.
CSGKC, established in 2010, has been a cornerstone of Singapore-China cooperation, fostering over 70,000 registered market entities and establishing industrial clusters in biomedicine, integrated circuits, and new energy vehicles. It serves as a gateway for businesses, institutions, and talent across Singapore, Guangzhou, and the Greater Bay Area.
The city is home to more than 40 biopharmaceutical projects and plans to establish an International Hub for Innovative Healthcare, modelled after Singapore’s HealthCity Novena. This hub will integrate medical care, elderly care, rehabilitation support, and medical tourism.
Samuel Ng, CEO of CSGKC Investment & Development Co., Ltd., stated, “Deeper collaboration between Singapore and China offers significant potential for innovation. We welcome partners to join us in advancing healthcare innovation, accelerating the translation of technology into real-world applications, and strengthening talent development.”
As CSGKC continues to grow, it remains a model of Singapore-China cooperation, integrating industry, innovation, and liveability, and reinforcing its role in advancing shared national priorities.
