正文(英文) | The CNRS will be setting up CNRS@CREATE, its first overseas subsidiary, in Singapore. Its objective will be to manage Franco-Singaporean research activities as part of the Singaporean ecosystem. An agreement to establish CNRS@CREATE was formalised on 13 July 2018 by Karin Ong, Deputy Chief of mission at Singaporean Embassy in France, and Antoine Petit, CEO of the CNRS, in the presence of French Minister of Higher education, Research and Innovation Frédérique Vidal and Singaporean Minister of Trade and Industry Chan Chun Sing.
20182018 has been declared the France-Singapore Year of Innovation and the CNRS is strengthening its links with Singapore's research ecosystem by creating the subsidiary CNRS@CREATE. CREATE (Campus for Research Excellence And Technological Enterprise) is an international campus that forges partnerships between Singapore's universities/research institutions and leading overseas research institutions. Researchers at CREATE work on highly interdisciplinary projects to tackle challenges that are both relevant to Singapore and globally significant.
CNRS@CREATE will be a non-profit Company Limited by Guarantee under Singaporean law. It will be housed in the CREATE Tower where researchers from seven overseas partner universities1 are based. The CNRS is the first research organization to join the programme. CNRS@CREATE will open the way for the French ecosystem to participate in projects hosted in Singapore. The first project proposed by the CNRS is titled SILVER (Singapore Innovative Living Environment). The project plans to build upon the work of the International Joint research unit IPAL2, and will be jointly led by French and Singapore research leaders. SILVER seeks to address the challenges of an aging population faced by both Singapore and France, and will bring together expertise in health, human and social sciences, and information technologies from the CNRS, its French partner universities, the National University of Singapore (NUS) and the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD). This project would involve about one hundred people, split into teams directed in tandem by pairs of French and Singapore leaders. ![]() © CREATE CREATE Tower, Singapore.
