In 2025, Singapore ranked 5th out of 139 economies in the Global Innovation Index (GII) and 9th out of 146 cities in the IMD Smart City Index both strong indicators of how innovation continues to drive national growth and quality of life. This success stems from more than just technology, it’s about fostering curiosity, adaptability, and systems that turn ideas into meaningful outcomes for citizens
