Kingsland’s success is due in large part to our growing community of supporters and the network of global partnerships we’ve been establishing at every conference, summit, and forum our team attends. As one of our early partners, Singapore has proven its dedication to the strategic adoption of technology for the country’s benefit, positioning it as a superb location for blockchain to flourish and for Kingsland education to make a resounding impact.

And that’s why we couldn’t have been more excited to attend the SGInnovate Deep Tech Summit in Singapore, a bespoke event dedicated to uniting thought leaders from around the world to discuss the multitude of ways emerging technology will transform society.

The inaugural Deep Tech Summit held on Sept. 18, allowed us to nurture our established connections with the visionaries in Singapore and expand that family of partners to include more thought leaders who share our mission of ensuring the future of emerging technology like blockchain. We thoroughly enjoyed engaging with each and every one of the Summit’s attendees as we all immersed ourselves in conversations about the future of talent development, AI’s impact on every industry, and blockchain’s potential beyond fintech.

It was a fruitful event, to say the least, including several investment announcements that would supply more resources to the AI start-up landscape. Among the awarded start-ups were Tricog Heath, an AI initiative working alongside cardiologists to diagnose heart disease in real time; ThinCI Inc., a computing platform builder equipping the world with the technology that’ll bring AI into the everyday; and Quantiply, a company applying AI’s intuitive technology to Anti Money Laundering and Know Your Customer processes to expeditiously fight financial crime.

And Kingsland was the subject of a significant announcement at SGInnovate’s Deep Tech Summit, as well.

We are proud to be partnering with SGInnovate and Ngee Ann Polytechnic to launch Singapore’s first certified blockchain developer program. With the educational expertise of Ngee Ann Polytechnic and the deep tech ecosystem of SGInnovate, we’ll be delivering Kingsland’s leading edge blockchain curriculum in our recently designed Hybrid Immersion format.

The Hybrid Immersion model combines a blend of face-to-face intensive technical training and online supported instruction to ensure a flexible learning environment, crafted to accommodate working professionals interested in upskilling their talents for development.

Kingsland is thrilled to be matched with these institutions as we continue delivering on our promise to ensure the future of blockchain through education and we’re looking forward to the success of future Kingsland graduates out of Singapore!
