Frequently Asked Questions
The UOB FinLab AI Ready Programme is a curated programme designed to help SMEs understand, adopt, and apply AI in their business. It includes expert-led masterclasses, practical workshops featuring plug-and-play solutions, sector-specific insights through industry-led workshops, and a guided Proof-of-Concept (POC) phase for selected participants, helping SMEs go from awareness to real-world AI adoption.
This programme is designed for Small and Medium enterprises (SMEs) in Singapore that are keen to explore and adopt AI to improve business operations, customer experience, or productivity.
This programme is a rare opportunity for SMEs to gain hands-on access to AI knowledge, tools, and expert-guidance – all tailored for business like yours. Whether you are just starting to explore AI or ready to implement solutions, you will benefit from practical insights, plug-and-play tools, exclusive promotions, and the chance to develop a real Proof-of-Concept (POC) with expert support. It is a low-risk, high-impact way to future-proof your business.
The masterclasses and workshops are complimentary for selected SMEs. Additional support or POC implementation may involve subsidised costs or special packages, which will be shared during the sessions.
We understand SMEs have busy schedules. While attending the full programme is ideal, you may still join selected sessions such as the masterclasses or workshops. However, priority for the guided Proof-of-Concept (POC) phase will be given to participants who actively engage across the programme.
The POC Phase offers tailored guidance from AI experts to scope, test, and validate an AI solution within your business.
No prior experience is required. The programme is structured to support all levels of digital readiness – from awareness to implementation.
