Singapore and the European Union are well-established trade partners and share common goals when it comes to research and innovation. Both have adopted forward looking strategies to support academia, business and civil society to modernise our societies in a fair and sustainable way and both recognise the importance of international cooperation to do so. This approach makes them natural allies to transform the challenges of our time into opportunities through research and innovation. Our panel brought together key stakeholders from the EU and Singapore to assess the state of collaboration in R&I and to jointly consider areas in which the relationship can be further strengthened.
