Open Innovation Platform

The OIP helps corporates diagnose their business challenges and crowd-source for innovative digital solutions from start-ups, technology providers, and research institutes.

IMDA and experienced industry consultants will work with corporates to diagnose their business challenges, batch them together and launch Innovation Calls on the OIP every quarter. The OIP’s consultancy, crowd-sourcing, and marketing services are complementary and corporates need only provide prize monies for the digital solutions they choose.

For a faster match, we offer a discovery engine, a one-stop self-help platform to power tech innovation. Gain access to a curated pool of trusted tech providers through useful filters such as sector, technology area and location.

All corporates, start-ups, and technology providers are eligible to participate.

Corporates can tap on OIP consultants to assist in identifying and refining their challenge statement, while allocating prize money for the digital solution. Submit an enquiry form here.
