Singapore is an attractive regional hub in Asia for the innovation, test bedding and commercialization of digital health innovations. The island nation boasts a significant number of multinational corporations with their regional headquarters based in Singapore, a thriving startup ecosystem, and robust support from the Singaporean government for entrepreneurship. As innovators seek to bring their innovations from Singapore to the rest of Asia, the pathway to scale is not often clear and fraught with challenges. ACCESS Health Southeast Asia, in partnership with the Singapore Economic Development Board, set out to understand the path to regionalisation of digital health innovations in Asia through in-depth interviews with 26 companies, startups, and experts.
