Enterprise Singapore, the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB), and Endeavor launched Endeavor’s first Asia-Pacific Global Hub in Singapore, alongside a new programme to help high-potential startups expand internationally.
Enterprise Singapore and the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB) strengthened their partnership with Endeavor through the launch of Endeavor’s Global Hub in Singapore, the organisation’s first hub in the Asia-Pacific region. Held at Jewel Changi Airport, the event brought together more than 170 founders, investors, and ecosystem partners to reinforce Singapore’s role as a global technology and innovation hub.
The launch was attended by Minister of State Alvin Tan and formed part of Singapore’s ongoing efforts to support entrepreneurship, innovation, and international business expansion. The Global Hub is designed to connect entrepreneurs from around the world with Singapore’s startup ecosystem while enabling Singapore-based founders to leverage Endeavor’s global network to access new markets and growth opportunities.
During the event, Enterprise Singapore, EDB, and Endeavor also introduced the inaugural Dare to Scale programme, an initiative supporting high-potential, early-stage startups with global expansion. The first cohort comprises eight Singapore-based companies operating in artificial intelligence, financial technology, agrifood technology, and enterprise software sectors.
The inaugural participants include AIDX, Ailytics, Bluente, FailSafe Cybersecurity, HeyMax, Level3AI, Otonomi, and ProfilePrint. The programme aims to equip these companies with access to international networks, mentorship, and strategic support to accelerate their global growth.
The launch highlighted Singapore’s continued commitment to fostering innovation and strengthening its position as a regional hub for entrepreneurship and technology. The Global Hub and the Dare to Scale programme are expected to create further opportunities for startups to collaborate, scale internationally, and contribute to Singapore’s innovation ecosystem.
