SimPlus is honored to get a mention in the speech by Deputy Prime Minister, Coordinating Minister for National Security and Minister for Home Affairs Mr Teo Chee Hean, at the 30th anniversary gala dinner of the Singapore Shipping Association (SSA), on 25th September 2015, Friday.
Mr Teo highlighted SimPlus in the area of innovation and technology. He mentioned that “..Our companies need to constantly develop and adopt new innovations in order to sustain Maritime Singapore’s resilience and competitiveness in the long run. MPA has been working closely with the industry to promote maritime R&D. More than a decade ago, MPA and A*STAR supported a joint project with NTU to develop simulation capabilities for marine traffic and port operations. Today, that project has spun off into its own company – SimPlus – developing simulation solutions and operations intelligence for different parts of the maritime industry. It has since worked with MPA on anchorage management, with our ports on cargo and terminal planning, and with the Singapore Cruise Centre on passenger terminal operations.”
