Singapore’s Ministry of Digital Development and Information (MDDI) and Google have signed a new National AI Partnership for the move, the two sides said in a joint statement on Tuesday. The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) will build on a 2022 agreement with the Smart Nation and Digital Government Group. The partnership supports Singapore’s National AI Strategy to scale AI deployment for economic growth and public benefit. A major focus of the collaboration is the use of AI in health and life sciences. Google DeepMind is exploring partnerships with Singapore’s public health clusters as part of its global AI co-clinician research initiative. The project focuses on AI systems supporting doctors in delivering care. It also assists patients throughout their healthcare journeys under physician supervision. Google DeepMind is also partnering with the National Research Foundation (NRF) of Singapore to train researchers on agentic AI tools for science, including the Co-Scientist platform for biomedical applications. Workshops will be conducted to help researchers apply frontier AI tools in scientific discovery. Separately, Google and the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (ASTAR) will work together to accelerate innovation in materials and life sciences. ASTAR researchers will gain access to AI-enabled tools on Google Cloud to support scientific analysis and hypothesis generation within a secure environment. The partnership also includes accessibility-focused initiatives. Google DeepMind is developing a Gemma-powered running assistant for blind and low-vision athletes, using spatial reasoning to provide real-time environmental awareness. In education, Google and the Ministry of Education (MOE) of Singapore are expanding collaboration on AI tools for teaching and learning. Google Workspace for Education’s AI features have already been made available to educators from primary schools to junior colleges, providing assistance with lesson planning and course materials. Google will also continue AI training and workforce development programs under its “Majulah AI” initiative, including Skills Ignition SG with the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA), startup-focused accelerator programs, and Gemini Academy. To support enterprise adoption, Google Cloud’s Singapore Engineering Center and its Forward Deployed Engineers team will work with local companies on agentic AI transformation projects. The partnership also builds on Google Cloud collaborations with organizations including AI Singapore, GovTech Singapore, HTX, CSIT, and the National University of Singapore. The agreement additionally focuses on AI governance and safety. Google, the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA), GovTech Singapore, and IMDA jointly released findings from an AI Agents Sandbox examining how “computer use” AI agents perform tasks such as software testing and social assistance applications. Google DeepMind is also collaborating with IMDA and MLCommons on multilingual and multimodal AI safety benchmarks to support responsible AI deployment across diverse languages and cultures. “Bringing frontier AI into our public services and enterprises is central to Singapore’s AI ambitions,” said Chng Kai Fong, Permanent Secretary (Digital Development and Information). Ben King, Country Managing Director of Google Singapore, said the partnership aims to accelerate “real-world impact” through AI deployment while creating “a scalable blueprint for responsible AI innovation.” <blockquote>Debug by Google expands Singapore site to accelerate AI, automation against mosquito-borne diseases</blockquote> </div>
