STB is a statutory board under the Ministry of Trade and Industry of Singapore, which aims to drive innovation & develop the country’s tourism sector, which currently contributes 4% to Singapore’s GDP. The accelerator’s objective is to enhance the development of innovative solutions and launch startup-corporate pilots with industry players such as Gardens by the Bay, Singapore Airlines, Jewel Changi Airport, and top hotel and hospitality groups such as Far East Hospitality and Pontiac Land Group, to name a few.
Agara was chosen from amongst a pool of hundreds of promising technology startups & scaleups. The chosen companies will have unparalleled access to work with some of Asia’s most important tourism industry players. They will undergo a two-month intensive accelerator program identifying a potential pilot project and scope, followed by 4 months of pilot implementation with selected industry partners.
