AI's next big leap might involve smarter math. Mathew Vanherreweghe is trying to prove it, with founders formerly from OpenAI and Facebook’s AI lab.

Two new co-investment partnerships will focus on funding and connecting startups originating from NUS to global networks and expertise.

NUS plans to establish a joint research centre focusing on AI applications in education, law, and healthcare.

The amount will be used to train up to 300 startup teams over the next four years.

The funds will be used to help faculty members and and researchers commercialize their research and support aspiring entrepreneurs under NUS Grip.

This is a joint effort between the National University of Singapore and the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore.

The program will target sectors such as energy transition, biotechnology, and the future of compute and cognition.

Jublia, which built an AI-powered solution to help conference participants engage “intelligently,” has been profitable for around eight years.

Named the Blockchain Research Center Program, the initiative is set to be one of the largest blockchain research efforts worldwide by funding grants.

The 150-square-meter plant that will be built in Singapore will be able to process approximately 150 tonnes of lithium batteries a year.
