Posted: 21 September 2010 1011 hrs



SINGAPORE: Singapore Telecommunications Limited (SingTel) on Tuesday announced it has set up $200 million fund to invest in communication technology research.

Known as SingTel Innov8, the fund will collaborate with leading innovators, developers, government agencies, R&D organisations as well as other equity providers around the region to promote innovation.

Innov8, a wholly-owned subsidiary of SingTel, will have an initial fund size of S$200 million.

It will also work closely with these partners to identify and explore new ideas and technologies, fund and support promising companies and provide access to markets that the SingTel Group operates in.

Mrs Yvonne Kwek, CEO of SingTel Innov8, said: "Innov8 will connect with the innovation hotspots of the world for new ideas, technology, products and services. We will invest in and incubate these innovations, and eventually bring them to market."

Innov8 will focus its investments on technologies and solutions that lead to quantum changes in network capabilities, next generation devices, digital content services and enablers to enhance customer experience.

Developers and innovators can leverage the scale and reach of the SingTel Group to access over 350 million customers across Asia and Africa.

In return, the SingTel Group said it will gain early access to new technologies, allowing it to enhance its customer proposition and make forays into new markets or segments.

Innov8 is part of the SingTel Group's journey to transform itself from a traditional telecommunications provider to become a leading multimedia and ICT solutions provider.

Ms Chua Sock Koong, SingTel Group CEO, said: "The investments made by Innov8 will ensure that the SingTel Group continues to stay relevant to customers' needs and capture growth opportunities. With Innov8, the Group will continue to shape the market and deliver sustainable growth into the future." - CNA/fa
