Why do TechUp
SN Group Mission
“Many countries and cities have similar ambitions to become smart nations or smart cities. The concepts and ideas vary. For us, being a smart nation is not about flaunting glitzy technology, but it is about applying technology to solve real world problems that will make a difference to people’s lives, and across the whole of society.”
Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong
Our core mission as SN is to apply technology to solve real world problems. In order to deliver on Smart Nation ambition, we need to take training and skills development very seriously to stay relevant.
TechUp aims to equip SN officers with baseline modern technical skills so that officers can effectively apply technology to solve real-world problems.
The goals are for every SN officer to:
Have a basic understanding of modern technology
Adopt an agile, iterative, problem-solving mindset, and
Connect with other teams and members of SN.
