Singapore launched HQCC 1.0, a $24.5 million initiative to integrate quantum computing, high-performance computing, and AI, focusing on middleware development, hybrid algorithms, and workforce training. NSCC Singapore signed MoUs with AMD and CSC Finland to establish a Centre of Excellence, advance HPC-quantum integration, and collaborate on AI, digital twin technologies, and green data centers. New talent development programs, including the Young Investigator Seed Project and Compute Pilot Initiative, will support early-career researchers and provide HPC resources for SMEs and startups. NSCC Singapore plans to expand its supercomputing infrastructure, with a new national supercomputer expected to be operational by late 2025, complementing its existing HPC resources.
