「シンガポールを拠点にアジアを狙う」。よく言われていることですが、コロナ禍でもその方程式は成り立つのでしょうか。 東南アジアはコロナ後も引き続き、急成長が期待される市場です。OECDによると、ASEAN10か国の2020年のGDP成長率はコロナの影響により-3.4%と落ち込みましたが、2021年は5.1%（前年比+8.5%）と大幅な回復が見込まれています。 このような中、どのような企業が、シンガポールで、またはシンガポールの利点をうまく活用して東南アジアでビジネスを拡大できるのか調査を行いました。 本セミナーでは、その調査結果をお伝えするとともに、シンガポールに進出した日本のスタートアップ2社とのパネルディスカッションを行い、最後には、シンガポールのイノベーションイベント「SFF×SWITCH2020」での大阪府とジェトロのサポートについてご紹介します。 スタートアップの皆様、先端技術をもつ中小企業の皆様向けの内容です。奮ってご参加ください。 Link : https://www.jetro.go.jp/events/osd/534c1f868f77d8ea.html
