New event a central platform for advanced manufacturing in Asia Pacific
As part of Singapore's Committee on the Future Economy report, Advanced Manufacturing was identified as a key driver of Singapore's future economic growth. Industrial Transformation Asia Pacific will provide a strategic boost to Singapore's manufacturing sector by serving as its anchor event.
The event will help to catalyse the transformation of Singapore's manufacturing sector by providing a platform for leading manufacturers and technology providers to discover the latest technologies and concepts, and to identify potential partners for co-innovation. It also brings together global leaders to share successful case studies and best practices in Asia, which can be adopted globally.

In that regard, Deutsche Messe's partnership with SingEx Group to stage the Asian edition of the HANNOVER MESSE in Singapore is a welcome development. It will help to showcase emerging technologies and catalyse the adoption of advanced manufacturing in Singapore, by bringing together global thought leaders and key industry stakeholders. The event will also be a significant boost to our business events pipeline," said Minister for Trade and Industry (Industry) Mr S Iswaran.
