🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s The Wide Angle Segment, David Kelly, Executive Director of BritCham Singapore, and Soren Nikolajsen, Managing Director for Government & Industry Engagement, Defence & Trade at NatWest joins Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen to dive into one of the most ambitious cross‑border innovation programmes shaping the future of UK–Singapore trade: the BritCham Singapore Life Sciences Trade Accelerator..

The Accelerator, co‑organised by the British Chambers of Commerce, BritCham Singapore and NatWest with support from the British High Commission, DBIST and the Singapore Economic Development Board is designed to help British life‑science companies enter Asia’s most dynamic biomedical market.

Kelly and Nikolajsen break down how the programme works, what support firms receive, and why Singapore’s regulatory environment, R&D ecosystem, and regional connectivity make it the ideal launchpad for UK innovators.

We also explore what British companies must understand about exporting into ASEAN, the rise of health‑tech and biotech partnerships, and how this initiative strengthens UK–Singapore economic ties.
