Surojit Shome, DBS India CEO, and sponsor said: "We are proud to partner with NTU and be a part of the Singapore India Hackathon 2023. DBS Bank has sponsored two unique challenges in the Hackathon, one on facilitating cross-border trade for SMEs and the other on solutions for sustainably achieving zero food waste. Coinciding with India's presidency of the G20 this year, this association underscores DBS Bank's commitment to fostering increased collaboration between Singapore and India." This year's Singapore-India Hackathon brought together research-intensive academic institutions like NTU Singapore and IIT Gandhinagar and leading corporates and the public sector from both nations to mentor the aspiring entrepreneurs.
