Singapore's Enterprise Ecosystem

As EDB continues to create the future, it has expanded its roles beyond being an industry developer of knowledge-intensive manufacturing and services, to also be an enterprise catalyst and innovation promoter.

We are building a compelling hub for business and investment by nurturing an enterprise ecosystem, a natural habitat for enterprises emerging and established, Singaporean and foreign, to thrive in synergy and symbiosis.

As with Nature, Singapore's economy nourishes companies of all types; like a lake with fish of all species and birds and insects of all wings, and colours.

For large multinationals, EDB offers extensive support under its enhanced cluster development to help MNCs move up the value chain. Upstream, by doing more cutting-edge R&D, testbedding and technology innovation in a compact, state-of-the-art infrastructure. Downstream, in market-based innovation, supply chain management and headquarters functions, capitalising on sophisticated connectivity and global networks.

Startups, like young saplings, can draw on a greenhouse environment to seed ideas, fertilised by venture capital funding, shielded from the elements in a pro-business setting that protects intellectual property rights.

Here, companies plug into global markets through Singapore's growing network of free trade agreements. Strategic access to the Asia-Pacific's 2.8 billion people is also offered. Biodiversity is added by top global talents, innovative companies and far-sighted VCs moving here from places such as Silicon Valley and Shanghai. Singapore's enterprise ecosystem is where companies can germinate, grow, glow and globalise.
