Enterprise Singapore has released the Standards and Conformance 2035 roadmap, making artificial intelligence, precision medicine, clean energy, and offshore wind power key standardization targets. The strategy calls for early development of standards and regulatory sandbars before formal rules are established at the international level. At the same time, the agency signed five memoranda with partners from the UK, US, South Korea, Australia, Canada, Vietnam and Indonesia.

As part of the initiative, Singapore will join forces with organizations such as the British Standards Institution and the American National Standards Institute to accelerate standard setting in AI and quantum computing. Separate agreements address the development of regional opportunities in Southeast Asia and the strengthening of a sustainability validation framework for carbon projects with the Gold Standard Foundation and Verra.

Singapore is already actively working on global AI standards, having previously proposed a draft of the first international standard ISO/IEC 42119-8 to test generative AI systems. In addition, local regulators have issued a set of recommendations for testing LLM applications for hallucinations and bias, and launched an accreditation program for independent AI testers.
