AI Singapore has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Intel Corporation to accelerate the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in Singapore by providing industry-relevant and skills-based training.

A goal has been set for engaging and training around 2000 students and developers over the next three years.

As per the agreement, AI Singapore will host free-of-cost training sessions based on the Intel® AI Academy suite of content for students, developers, start-ups and companies.
