Suzhou Entrepreneurship Bootcamp 2025

Suzhou Entrepreneurship Bootcamp 2025, jointly organised by NUSRI Suzhou and Suzhou Dushu Lake Entrepreneurship and Development Centre, was held from 21 to 23 August 2025. Focused on areas such as artificial intelligence, biomedical technology and intelligent manufacturing, the three-day long bootcamp garnered a cohort of over 20 innovative and entrepreneurial talents, comprising 15 teams from the National University of Singapore, Peking University, University of Science and Technology of China, Shandong University, and University of Electronic Science and Technology of China. The Bootcamp was designed to help accelerate the commercialisation process and foster entrepreneurial spirit by providing participants with valuable resources and guidance.

Through an enriching combination of training, industrial visits, project roadshow, as well as 1-1 business matching, the programme offered a chance to connect deeply with peers and start-up ecosystem players. Participants from diverse backgrounds were connected to various stakeholders of the ecosystem, e.g. potential business partners, government agencies, entrepreneurs and investors, to help validate their product-market fit.
