TECHNOLOGY UPGRADE (GET-UP)

Growing Enterprises through Technology Upgrade (GET-Up), an A*STAR initiative, is a pro-active integrated approach aimed at boosting the global competitiveness of local technology-intensive enterprises to equip them for the knowledge-based economy. SIMTech supports the GET-Up programme through: 

Technology for Enterprise Capability Upgrading (T-Up) - a multi-agency effort which involves seconding Research Scientists and Engineers (RSEs) to local enterprises for up to two years. T-Up is open to local enterprises with at least 30 per cent local shareholding, and are committed to undertaking R&D or innovative projects to upgrade their capabilities.  For enquiries on T-Up, please contact:
