Overview

International Co-Innovation Programmes
 

In today’s age, innovation is the name of the game. But you don’t have to develop solutions in isolation. Singapore’s international co-innovation programmes will assist in your company’s growth and internationalisation, by supporting projects that catalyse cross-border collaboration on technology development and co-innovation.

These programmes open up new opportunities for the exchange of ideas and knowledge across enterprises in different countries. By working with an international counterpart, your company can co-innovate solutions, test-bed them and scale up into the region together.

Enterprise Development Grant (Co-Innovation Programme) (EDG (CIP))
 

Enterprise Development Grant (Co-Innovation Programme), or EDG (CIP), is awarded to projects stemming from call-for-proposals arising from Enterprise Singapore’s partnerships with the Eureka Network, France, Germany, Israel, Jiangsu, Korea, Shanghai, UK and Zhejiang. Companies should click on the respective links to access info on the various programmes (e.g. call open dates, participant eligibility criteria, call themes, if applicable).

If awarded, eligible companies could receive up to 70% support for qualifying cost items to collaborate with their foreign, in-market partners on innovation activities such as joint R&D projects to develop new products or solutions.
