Living lab collaboration

The Voyager Living Lab is both a virtual community of global stakeholders and 2,240 square feet of physical space with a mix of facilities and virtual infrastructure to research and test new ideas.

Chee Hong Tat, Senior Minister of State for Transport & Finance, who was guest of honour at the launch, said, “The Voyager Living Lab will be a useful platform to catalyse more win-win partnerships, to help maritime companies develop promising concepts into full-fledged businesses.”

Working with MPA and the Singapore Shipping Association (SSA), the Voyager Living Lab’s Collaborate Programme will also bring maritime start-ups together with major brands, as well as working with academia to provide internships, support post-graduate programmes and collaborate on research.

The lab will be a free-to-use space focusing on three key functions – as a research space, as a creative space for problem-solving and as a physical test bed where concepts can be proven and prototypes tested.
