“We are proud to see ten researchers, engineers and professionals representing Singapore at the World Port Hackathon. This attests to the vibrant maritime research and innovation ecosystem in Singapore. The past two Smart Port Hackathons organised by MPA were successful in generating new ideas. To accelerate the translation of the new ideas into technology solutions for the maritime industry, MPA is planning a new concept for next year’s edition of the event to attract technopreneurs, start-ups, technology companies and venture capitalists to partner the maritime industry for the development and commercialisation of solutions. Our participation at the World Port Hackathon will provide useful learning opportunities for MPA as we prepare to refresh next year’s event,” said Mr Andrew Tan, Chief Executive, MPA.
