Singapore ranks amongst one of the best places in the world to start or grow your business.

Credited as the top business environment in Asia by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) in 2003, Singapore is fast becoming the strategic base to access the 500-million-people in the Southeast Asian market and the 2.8 billion strong Asian market.

Singapore is also voted the world's favourite business city, according to surveys conducted by Time, Business Traveler Asia Pacific and Business Traveler UK.

The government is highly attuned to the needs of business, and the workforce is an efficient and technology-savvy lot.

As the world strides deeper into a knowledge-based economy, coupled with the irreversible phenomenon of globalisation, there will be an increasing demand for services that assist businesses to adapt to the changing dynamics of the global marketplace. In the midst of all this, it should not come as a surprise that key growing industries thrive vibrantly in Singapore.

So come join the more than 7,000 foreign MNCs and 10,000 foreign SMEs from around the world which have set up base in Singapore.
