We undertake investment promotion and industry development in the manufacturing and internationally tradeable services sectors. Industries within our purview account for more than a third of Singapore’s annual GDP.

Besides facilitating investments, we engage Singapore’s existing base of companies to transform their operations and boost productivity, and to generate growth in adjacent and disruptive areas by growing new businesses out of Singapore.

We work with companies by providing information, connection to partners and access to government incentives for their investments, as well as their transformation and growth initiatives. 

We also work closely with other Singapore government agencies to constantly improve our pro-business environment, and ensure that our industries are supported by a globally competitive workforce through talent development.

We invest through EDBI in globally competitive businesses to create successful, sustainable industries and to achieve long term shareholder value.
