Virtual Singapore Pavilion @ ITAP 2020

With the future world of manufacturing changing rapidly, Singapore’s manufacturing sector is poised not just for resilience, but also growth. Singapore’s manufacturing base has been gearing up for Industry 4.0 (I 4.0) and the adoption of technology for manufacturing is also spreading. With our rich knowledge base, conducive business environment, smart nation infrastructure, precision engineering, and creative and technical design capabilities, we are able to empower manufacturers in their next step.

Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat delivered his opening address during ITAP 2020’s opening ceremony. This ceremony was attended by 100 onsite attendees in Singapore and broadcasted on ITAP’s online platform.

To allow visitors to explore these exciting possibilities, the SMF led a virtual Singapore Pavilion with Enterprise Singapore at the Industrial Transformation ASIA-PACIFIC (ITAP) this year. Held from 20 October to 22 October 2020, some 20 local companies showcased their offerings in this jointly led virtual exhibition. Visitors to the Singapore Pavilion saw companies presenting their latest technology, including solutions that manufacturers from all over the world can adopt to embark on their I 4.0 transformation journey.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Singapore Pavilion was moved to the digital sphere.
