Purpose:

The International Marketing Activities Programme (iMAP) provides support for Trade Associations and Chambers (TA/Cs) to organise overseas business missions and Singapore Pavillions at the international trade fairs.

Savings obtained under iMAP will be disbursed by the TA/Cs to eligible Singapore-incorporated companies who participate in TA/C-organised business missions and Singapore Pavillions.

Introduced in April 2002, iMAP reimburses up to 70% of eligible expenses related to organising overseas business missions and Singapore Pavillion at international trade fairs to the TA/Cs.

All eligible appliations submitted by the TA/Cs will be evaluated based on the following criteria:

    1. Whether the activities take place in IE Singapore's focus markets'

    2. Whether the activities are in line with IE Singapore's priority sectors;

    3. The quality and international standing of the trade fair (for trade fairs only); 

    4. The priority that the TA/Cs place on the activities.

The track record of the TA/Cs under iMAP and the extent to which the targets of previous activities were met will also be taken into consideration for the evaluation of the applications.

Companies who wish to participate in iMAP supported activities should contact the respective TA/C organising the event.
