Imperial College London and the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore have signed a five-year memorandum of understanding (MoU) to collaborate on zero-carbon shipping innovations and net-zero port emissions in both nations.
The partnership will focus on digital technologies like smart port systems and cybersecurity for maritime Internet-of-Things devices. Additionally, the MoU includes student exchanges, industry internships, and joint research. This initiative aligns with Imperial’s newly launched research hub in Singapore, aiming to accelerate breakthroughs in maritime decarbonization and strengthen the UK-Singapore Green Economy Framework.
