On 27 October 2014, under the witness of Mr Teo Chee Hean, the then Deputy Prime Minister of Singapore, and Mr Zhang Gaoli, the then Vice Premier of China, Singapore-China (Suzhou) Innovation Centre (SCIC) was inaugurated by Mr Lee Yi Shyan, the then Senior Minister of State for Trade and Industry and National Development of Singapore, and Mr Cao Jianlin, the then Vice Minister of Ministry of Science and Technology of China.
SCIC aims to promote research and entrepreneurship collaborations between Singapore and China. To achieve this aim, SCIC provides a platform and eco-system for companies in SIP to access and adopt new technologies, accelerating their process of transformation and upgrading. The platform will provide access to technologies from NUS, Singapore and from around the world through the NUS network thus providing market access and potential technology licensing opportunities to good quality technologies developed outside China for the China market.
