About the Capital Partners Division
EDB’s Capital Partners division oversees Whole-of-Government efforts to engage sophisticated private capital players whose presence and investments advance Singapore’s economic and innovation priorities.
Capital Partners (i) actively engages top global investors, including leading venture capital/private equity firms and single and multi-family offices; (ii) facilitates and develops partnerships between these firms and other public and private collaborators in EDB’s growth areas, e.g. AI/digital, advanced manufacturing, sustainability, healthcare, deep tech and innovation; and (iii) encourages them to anchor their high-growth portfolio companies in Singapore to grow and scale.
These efforts position Singapore as a trusted location where investors can access regional and global opportunities, as well as grow and scale their portfolio companies.
