AI innovation drive accelerates in Singapore with Google support
Healthcare AI, startup acceleration, and national training drive Google’s push to scale responsible AI adoption in Singapore.
Google has announced a major expansion of its AI investments in Singapore, strengthening research capabilities, workforce development, and enterprise innovation as part of a long-term regional strategy.
The initiatives were unveiled at the company’s Google for Singapore event, signalling deeper alignment with the nation’s ambition to lead the AI economy.
Research and development form a central pillar of the expansion. Building on the recent launch of a Google DeepMind research lab in Singapore, the company is scaling specialised teams across software engineering, research science, and user experience design.
A new Google Cloud Singapore Engineering Centre will also support enterprises in deploying advanced AI solutions across sectors, including robotics and clean energy.
Healthcare innovation features prominently in the investment roadmap. Partnerships with AI Singapore will support national health AI infrastructure, including access to the MedGemma model to accelerate diagnostics and treatment development.
Google is also launching a security-focused AI Center of Excellence and rolling out age assurance technologies to strengthen online protections for younger users.
