About The Energy Open Innovation Challenge

Over the past century, the energy sector has been one of the significant contributors to industrial growth, fuelling the rapidly growing global economy. Singapore has developed an extensive and integrated value chain that spans refining, crackers, petrochemicals, and specialty chemical manufacturing that is supported by R&D and innovation. The demand in Asia for energy, chemicals, and products with specialty chemical components will remain strong over the next 5 years.

As a result, Enterprise Singapore (ESG), in association with energy company partners, government agencies, and innovators, is launching The Energy Open Innovation Challenge. This is with the mission of boosting innovation in the global energy industry. 

It is calling for local and international startups and small-and-medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to improve the energy sector and provide solutions to four key industry needs; Asset Management, Robotics, Sustainability, and Workflow. So, everyone including you is welcome to submit multiple entries to tackle various problem statements. 

As a participant, you can use this opportunity to collaborate and cross-develop your new solutions with a pool of innovative companies and energy industry experts. This is your chance to showcase your unique solutions to global energy companies and establish new business opportunities.
