Launched in July 2023, the AI Trailblazers is a joint initiative by Google Cloud, the Ministry of Communications and Information (MCI), Digital Industry Singapore (DISG), and Smart Nation and Digital Government Office (SNDGO). It provided access to two innovation sandboxes that enabled participating organisations to use Google Cloud’s unified AI stack at no cost to develop their production-ready generative AI solutions.
After iteration, testing, and technical reviews, Temus was one of 84 participating organisations demonstrated their working solutions to a panel from MCI, DISG, SNG, and Google Cloud, who evaluated and accredited these solutions based on design, usability, reliability, functionality, and propensity for real-world application.
Temus’ AI Talent Acquisition and Development platform was recognised with an Innovation Award and was one of 6 organisations selected to showcase their solution at the Google ExploreAI Event. 500 guests from the industry came to celebrate the achievements of all AI Trailblazers participants who have accomplished the feat of bringing their use cases to life in 100 days.
At the event, Mrs Josephine Teo, Minister for Communications and Information, and Mark Micallef, Managing Director, Google Cloud, Southeast Asia, also covered the launch of the much anticipated Gen AI startup programme in Singapore (as announced by DPM Heng Swee Keat at SWITCH 2023) as well as further plans to deepen the partnership between the Ministry of Communications and Information (MCI), Digital Industry Singapore (DISG), and Google Cloud to supercharge the development and adoption of AI solutions across both the public and private sectors.
