Singapore plans to become the world’s first smart nation (Things you should know)

1) The importance of programming

Kids (starting from 5 years old) in China and England have mandatory computer science class – where coding and hosting are being taught to them. This is where it builds a huge gap in Singapore’s future workforce.

 

2) Investment opportunity

This year, the government has committed US $13.8 BILLION in a 5-year plan to build innovation and technology adoption in companies and value creation in the economy. Twitter has just opened its headquarter in Singapore this year.  This creates a thousand and one opportunities for us as an investor to ride on!

Healthcare, information technology, creative industries, fintech, retail, and education are sectors where the money will be committed to.

“Ultimately, it’s all about utilizing every information to your best advantage”
