About the Country

Under the government’s Research, Innovation and Enterprise (RIE) 2020 plan, Singapore is investing in its smart future, with around S$4 billion (US$2.8 billion) to be used for promoting research and innovation each year from 2016 to 2020. The commitment reflects the city-state’s drive to maintain its competitive edge in developing a knowledge-based economy. This will also encourage the start-ups and help tie-ups with an increasing number of multinational corporations.

In line with this vision, The World CIO 200 Summit 2020 will bring together the digital leaders who have gone the extra mile in living up to the expectations of their organization and thereby the nation. Join the country’s top CIOs at The World CIO Summit 2020 as we divulge industry pivotal areas through our focused keynotes, TECHTalk and expert panel discussions.
