About this programme

This corporate demand-driven acceleration programme will see Epicenter crowding in corporate giants in Sweden, such as Arla Foods and H&M, to jointly identify opportunities and partner Singapore companies in cross-border business collaborations.

Selected Singapore companies with relevant technologies will participate in a series of coaching sessions by Epicenter to assess market potential, validate product-market fit, explore new use cases for testbedding and hone pitching skills.

Shortlisted startups will go on to trial and potentially implement their solutions with the corporate partners.
