In addition, for enterprises that require private cloud infrastructure, Oracle will sponsor up to S$1.9 million to enable participating enterprises to access Oracle Private Cloud Appliance and Oracle Exadata, delivering enterprise-grade performance, scalability, and security. Combined with the Singapore Government’s support covering 70% of consultancy costs (capped at S$105,000 per enterprise), the initiative aims to lower barriers and enable enterprises to adopt AI at scale, accelerating digital transformation across industries.

"Through the Oracle AI Customer Excellence Center and our participation in the Enterprise Compute Initiative, we are making AI accessible for Singapore enterprises—including the 11 Critical Information Infrastructure (CII) sectors that handle sensitive data—which will help them stay ahead in today’s rapidly evolving business landscape."

Supported by a dedicated team of Oracle experts and a network of partners, the Oracle AI Customer Excellence Center is designed to help organizations train teams, test innovations in secure cloud environments, and provide the knowledge needed to transform critical business operations.
