# Singapore Bets Big on AI in 2026 Budget

**Artificial intelligence was prominently featured in Singapore’s latest budget statement with finance named as a key sector for transformation.**

In Singapore’s 2026 budget statement, a full section was dedicated to artificial intelligence (AI) with plans to harness the technology as a strategic advantage for the city-state.

A new set of national «AI Missions» will be launched with a focus on four sectors: advanced manufacturing, connectivity, finance, and healthcare. Regulations will be reviewed and sandboxes will be created to test AI innovations while the government will align its research and development, regulatory, and investment promotion efforts.

In order to coordinate such activities, a new »National AI Council» will be established, chaired by Singapore Prime Minister and Minister for Finance **Lawrence Wong**, to provide strategic direction and drive the agenda.

**Accelerating Adoption, Empowering Workers**

In addition, Singapore will look to further accelerate AI adoption with various initiatives to support firms in transforming their business and provide tax incentives by including AI expenditures as a qualifying activity.

The government also emphasized its concerns for workers by helping them adapt and acquire new skills. While it will lead some efforts in this area, such as a refreshed website focused on AI learning pathways, it also urged Singaporeans to be proactive in utilizing readily available tools like chatbots.

«Singapore will not be passive in the face of rapid changes around us,» Wong said. «We will adapt. We will compete. We will continue to move forward with confidence. By harnessing AI as a strategic advantage, we will shape our own future and secure our place in this changed world.»
