The ARTC Startup Challenge 2021 is organised by ARTC in partnership with Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA), Open Innovation Platform (OIP), A*StartCentral with support from I2R. The theme revolves around the Industrial Internet of Things for Advanced Manufacturing with 3 problem statements posed by ARTC Members like Halliburton, Kennametal, Procter & Gamble and Shell. This year, we received 50% increase in startup’s participation compared to the first challenge in 2020. 

During Day 3 of the BTM event, 9 startup finalists have been selected to pitch their solutions to the judges coming from ARTC Members, ARTC and Partners. Eventually, we have 3 winners : TransferFI, MyrLabs and Zuno who have emerged as the winner for their problem statement category. Moving forward, they will be undergoing an accelerator programme to do a Proof-of-Concept with the ARTC Members.
