Today we’re going to talk about helping patients with their rehabilitation through exoskeletons and even humanoid robots.

Founded in 2015, our guest for today Fourier Intelligence aims to redefine rehabilitation robotics solutions by integrating inter-connectable intelligent robotics technology with creativity. 

So far, the firm provides over 30 products and 200 solutions that can assist patients with upper and lower body impairments, as well as those with difficulties with movements and balance. 

Why are we speaking to Fourier Intelligence you might ask? Well, it may be early days for robots in the rehabilitation industry now, but the space holds tremendous potential. 

For one thing, Grand View Research valued the global rehabilitation robots market at US$226 million in 2021. It also expects the market to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 17.3% from 2022 to 2030 amid a rise in healthcare spending and an ageing population in maturing economies. So what are the opportunities ahead for Fourier Intelligence? 

Meanwhile, the firm is also building a network of researchers to chart the new frontier of innovative medical technologies, with strategic partners such as the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab in Chicago, the National Healthcare Group in Singapore, and the University of Melbourne. What can we expect on this front?

And just to get you excited – Fourier Intelligence also debuted what’s said to be the world’s first general-purpose humanoid robot for use in rehabilitative care and scientific research. But what does the invention mean for the company?

On Under the Radar, The Evening Runway’s finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Zen Koh, Co-founder and Global CEO of Fourier Intelligence.

Under the Radar: Fourier Intelligence on the growing rehabilitation robotics market and its humanoid robots

It is all about the business of love today as we speak to a leading provider of digital technologies designed to help people make meaningful connections. 

Founded 25 years ago, our guest today is Match group, which pioneered the concept of online dating and continues to foster innovation in the dating industry daily. 

The firm boasts a portfolio of brands and is more commonly known as the company behind Tinder, Match and Pairs, providing matching services in over 40 languages to users all over the world.

Today, Match Group has a footprint in 20 offices worldwide, hiring some 2,000 employees. Here in Asia, it is headquartered in Singapore, with its regional team spread across markets including Japan, South Korea, Australia, India, Vietnam and Thailand. 

The company recently reported its third quarter financial performance, where its operating income stood at US$211 million, down 14 per cent on the year impacted by impairments of tangibles and other charges relating to its exit from Hakuna and other live streaming services. But what were the reasons behind the exit, and how is its Asia business faring on the whole?

Speaking of Match Group’s Asia business, the firm is largely zoomed in on the Japanese market through its dating and marriage app called “Pairs”. 

With a total of over 20 million registered users, Pairs is said to have facilitated every one in 10 marriages in Japan. But what are the key learnings from Pair’s operations in Japan, and how far can the operating model in Japan be replicated in other Asian markets with lower marriage rates?  

On Under the Radar, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Malgosia Green, CEO of Match Group Asia.

Opening new frontiers in information technology and pioneering the future of innovation. That is what we are going to talk about today with our guest from a leading technology services firm in Asia Pacific. 

Founded in 1981, NCS is a subsidiary of Singtel Group that provides what it calls differentiated and end-to-end services to clients with its capabilities in core areas such as application, infrastructure, engineering and cybersecurity.

The firm partners with governments and enterprises across industries such as hospitality, manufacturing, logistics and even healthcare to advance communities through technology. 

Such technologies include the Breeze app, which utilises computer vision and artificial intelligence to help users get around local neighbourhoods such as Tiong Bahru more easily.

Why are we speaking to NCS you might ask? Well, we’re speaking to NCS because the firm is currently doubling down on innovation in emerging areas such as digital, data, cloud and platform through its digital services arm NEXT. 

That’s after the company had in July 2021 announced a major business transformation to reposition it for growth in the 5G era. 

The strategic reset then focused on growing digital services, scaling its government and telco business segment and capturing new growth opportunities in the enterprise sector across key regional markets of Singapore, Australia and Greater China. 

But what has been done thus far and how important is NCS NEXT to the firm alongside its other strategic business groups? And what will the rapid adoption of generative AI mean for the firm as it looks to the second half of the decade? 

On Under the Radar, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Wynthia Goh, Senior Partner, NCS NEXT.

This year’s Singapore Fintech Festival surrounds six major themes that will frame 2025. 

One of the themes among industry leaders, in particular, is the need to bridge the financial gap and ensure equitable access and usage of financial services and products to the underserved. 

On this note, did you know that 1.4 billion people globally still lack access to bank accounts? Yes, and that is according to an article published on the World Economic Forum in just September this year. 

So what can we then do to level the playing field for the underbanked and underserved – both individuals and budding entrepreneurs who are starting out? 

Well, the numbers appear to point to fintech as the answer, given increased internet adoption and digitalisation.

In this panel discussion on "Bridging the Financial Gap", we talked about the challenges individuals as well as Micro, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises faced in accessing traditional financial services and how the use of digital banking and digital tokens can level the playing field for the underserved. 

We also looked at the metrics used to determine progress towards equitable financial outcomes and identify areas for further intervention, and the need to ensure that digital technologies continue to narrow and not widen the wealth gap. 

As part of MONEY FM’s on the ground coverage of Singapore Fintech Festival 2024, Money Matters’ Finance Presenter Chua Tian Tian spoke with Kai Qiu, Deputy CEO and CTO, ANEXT Bank and Eric Barbier, CEO, Triple-A for more.
