Matthias participated as a technology expert to review all the submission for CSA Cybersecurity Industry Call for Innovation 2022. The call was previously launched at Cybersecurity Innovation Day 2022 by Senior Minister of State for Ministry of Communications and Information, Dr. Janil Puthucheary, who delivered the welcome address to a full house at the Raffles City Convention Centre.
This year, Two cyber-security centres will be set up at local universities and receive $110 million in funding as part of a plan to grow Singapore as a cyber-security hub, Minister for Communications and Information Josephine Teo announced on Friday.
Mrs Teo, who is also Minister-in-charge of Smart Nation and Cybersecurity, was speaking at the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA) Cybersecurity Innovation Day, which was held at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre.
The funding, she said, will support a centre at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) tasked with researching cyberthreats to the nation, and a facility at the National University of Singapore (NUS) that will focus on nurturing talent and collaborating with businesses and industry players.
The plan is to help Singapore establish itself in the digital economy market, she said, which is expected to triple to some $1.3 trillion within the region by 2030, according to the Boston Consulting Group.
The office will manage grants for new cyber-security projects and focus on threats tied to artificial intelligence (AI), data privacy and other matters, said Professor Liu Yang, the centre’s executive director.
