Amazon Global Selling launches its first cross-border e-commerce brand launchpad in Singapore to help SMEs unlock growth opportunities in cross-border e-commerce

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 24 July 2023 – (NASDAQ: AMZN) – Amazon Global Selling today introduced the ‘Amazon Global Selling Singapore Cross-border Brand Launchpad’ program, in collaboration with Enterprise Singapore (EnterpriseSG) and Singapore Business Federation (SBF), to equip local entrepreneurs with cross-border e-commerce skills[1] and help them access burgeoning opportunities of this sector and build a long-term global business. The program will help over 100 local Singapore micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs[2]) to launch and scale their brands through Global Selling in the next two years and help at least 300 Singapore companies to equip them with knowledge set of cross-border e-commerce through a long-term knowledge collaboration.

A first by Amazon Global Selling in Singapore, the program will help over 100 eligible local MSMEs launch their brands and scale in the United States (U.S.) with dedicated and tailored account management support and resources. Notably, MSMEs will receive support in areas including advisory on business growth and solutions, optimization of marketing and analytics tools, and know-how on achieving product standards certification in line with local regulations.

Additionally, as part of a long-term knowledge collaboration, Amazon Global Selling is working with SBF to develop a dedicated cross-border e-commerce learning series for at least 300 Singapore companies. This will feature key topics including introduction to cross-border e-commerce business model, solutions to tackle common global e-commerce challenges, and relevant digital economy skills such as product selection and preparation, overseas market and consumer research, digital brand building and tools, performance optimization, cross-border logistics, and more. With seminars, business review, and business matching, the knowledge collaboration aims to empower local companies to develop a global business on the worldwide playing field.

Global e-commerce has grown at an average rate of 12%[3] over the last several years and this is forecasted to continue into the future. Within e-commerce, the cross-border Business-to-Consumer (B2C) e-commerce market is experiencing growth with a global CAGR of nearly 28.4% during 2020-2027[4]. “Cross-border e-commerce is becoming increasingly crucial for the success of MSMEs. To fuel their long-term growth, we recognize the significance of local collaborations and local support,” said Anand Palit, Head of Amazon Global Selling, Southeast Asia. “We look forward to growing our efforts with Enterprise Singapore and Singapore Business Federation to help local businesses seize the potential of the ever-expanding cross-border e-commerce and write the new chapter of Singapore MSME’s transformation story.”

“To strengthen their competitive edge, businesses must equip themselves with the capabilities to explore new markets and adopt differentiated go-to market strategies. The size and vibrancy of the e-commerce market in the U.S. presents significant opportunities for Singapore businesses,” said Soh Leng Wan, Assistant Chief Executive Officer, EnterpriseSG. “We are excited to partner with Amazon Global Selling to help Singapore businesses build their capabilities in cross-border e-commerce and unlock new drivers of growth.”

“SBF is pleased to partner with Amazon Global Selling and EnterpriseSG to launch the “Amazon Global Selling: Singapore Cross-border Brand Launchpad” today. This partnership will help Singapore businesses develop the necessary know-how to reach customers in the U.S., which is one of the most diverse in the world with an enormous growth potential for consumer brands. We look forward to do more with Amazon Global Selling to accelerate cross-border e-commerce adoption by Singapore companies,” said Kok Ping Soon, CEO of Singapore Business Federation.

High growth potential for Singapore MSMEs with cross-border e-commerce

The value of B2C e-commerce sales earned by Singapore firms from overseas sales has the potential to nearly double from S$1.7 billion in 2022 to S$3.9 billion by 2027, if they invest in cross-border e-commerce. These are findings from the newly launched ‘Local Sellers, Global Consumers: Capturing the e-commerce export opportunity in Singapore’ study, which surveyed over 300 MSMEs from Singapore. The study, prepared by consulting firm Access Partnership, analyses the size of Singapore’s e-commerce export potential, the perspective of local MSMEs, and best practices to achieve that potential.

MSMEs are optimistic about the demand for online shopping. The study found that 82% of Singaporean MSMEs believe that e-commerce is critical for their ability to export. When asked the reasons for using e-commerce to export, MSMEs value the access to marketing tools that boost their product visibility internationally (48%) and ease of engaging with overseas customers online (47%). Other reasons cited include the ability to access a large number of overseas countries (44%) and the growing demand for online shopping (39%).

Amidst the opportunities for growth through cross-border e-commerce, the capability and knowledge barriers faced by MSMEs are a lack of capability in managing digital platforms and a lack of knowledge on e-commerce export business models, which are what the knowledge collaboration aims to address.

Singapore brands are emerging on the global stage

Today, more than 60% of sales in Amazon’s store are from independent sellers—most of which are small and medium-sized businesses—providing a vast selection of amazing products, competitive prices, and great convenience for consumers[5] . Many Singapore sellers have already started their e-commerce journeys on Amazon stores. As of this May, sales from Singapore sellers on Amazon global sites have achieved double-digit growth YoY, and have hit record-breaking performance during Prime Day this year.

HYDRAGUN, a local brand providing health and wellness massagers and products, is an example of a passion project that has scaled to global audiences. “Hydragun was an idea born from my training injury that quickly became an opportunity to offer high-quality, premium recovery essentials to people all over the world who suffer from body aches and pain. Whether you are young or old, active or otherwise, pain is something that everyone would experience at some point—and my team and I aim to innovate and create recovery solutions to help people feel good, get better and live their best lives. As Hydragun continues to expand globally, Amazon presents a unique opportunity to directly reach a wide base of customers. They are one of the key levers to helping us achieve our mission of reaching 1 million households by 2025,” said Aloysius Chay, co-founder of HYDRAGUN.

The FIRST® LEGO® League offers annual international STEAM competitions, drawing participation from over 100 countries worldwide. Students, using LEGO® Education kits to achieve their goals, explore STEAM topics and boost their 21st-century skills. The event also aligns with Hong Kong’s chief executive’s 2022 policy address, aiming to promote STEAM education “for all”, “for fun”, and “for diversity” in primary and secondary schools. This initiative intends to include more I&T learning elements in the curriculum, designate coordinators in all publicly-funded schools to plan STEAM education holistically, and arrange professional training for teachers in at least 75% of publicly-funded schools.

“The FIRST® LEGO® League competition embodies our commitment to inspire and cultivate the future leaders of STEAM,” said Ming Kwok, CEO of Trumptech. “By providing students with an immersive, hands-on learning experience, we are empowering them to develop creative problem-solving abilities and technological literacy that will prove essential in the world of tomorrow.”

This year’s competition offered a range of categories for kindergarteners, primary, and secondary school students, ensuring a holistic development and application of STEAM skills throughout their academic journey.

Students prepared for four critical aspects of the competition: The Robot Game, Innovation project, Robot Design, and Core Values. Through these segments, they had the chance to design and program robots, propose creative solutions to global issues, and present their projects to professional judges.

Participating teams consisted of 2-6 students, guided by 1-2 coaches. They were equipped with LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Prime core and expansion kits, FLL Challenge annual field set (mission maps and field models), teacher and student guides, and the Robot Performance Competition Guide.

The competition rewarded students across multiple areas, such as Robot Design, Innovation project, and Team Collaboration, with the opportunity for winners to attend the international competition in China, US, Europe and Australia.

Beyond the competition, Trumptech offers comprehensive STEAM learning services and support, including FLL competition workshops, FLL competition training courses, SPIKE Prime student interest classes, and SPIKE Prime fun days for entire grades. These opportunities allow preparation for the competition and easy integration into the curriculum.

“We are proud of the achievements of all the teams this year and excited about the potential of these young learners,” added Mr. Kwok. “The future of STEAM is in their hands, and we at Trumptech are committed to helping them explore, innovate, and lead.”

In addition to Trumptech, the FIRST® LEGO® League 2022-23 was supported by multiple parties, including Strategic Partner the Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups, Co-organisers the Hong Kong Association for Computer Education (HKACE) and the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), and venue sponsor THEi and Vocational Training Council of Hong Kong.

The policy address and Trumptech’s efforts are converging to form a robust foundation for promoting I&T development in Hong Kong. The success of the FIRST® LEGO® League competition is a testament to this commitment.

5th "China Best Managed Companies" List Revealed

5th "China Best Managed Companies" List Revealed

Evolution and Renewal of Excellence

SUZHOU, CHINA – Media OutReach – 24 July 2023 – The 5th China Best Managed Companies (“BMC”) List, with the theme “Driving the Innovation Journey to Excellence”, was announced today at the China BMC Awards Ceremony in Suzhou, Jiangsu. More than 100 guests, including representatives of the core management teams of the award winners, renowned entrepreneurs, representatives of domestic and international partners, and business elites, were present to mark the occasion.

BMC, a Deloitte global program with 30 years of history, landed in China in 2018. The event is now in its fifth year, and this year saw the first awards for China BMC Gold Award winners (winners for five consecutive years). China BMC is sponsored by Deloitte China in conjunction with the Bank of Singapore, KUST Business School, Harvard Business Review (Chinese edition), and local business associations. It is backed by a rigorous screening process that identifies and witnesses private companies with advanced management concepts and superior management levels that can inspire more Chinese companies to focus on long-term, balanced, and sustainable development.

As the only international award in China that comprehensively evaluates the management systems of private enterprises, the BMC program brings together exemplary private enterprises in China, demonstrates the power of excellence, motivates more private enterprises to create internal change, and externally shapes “social enterprises” and sustainable development benchmarks in China.

After six months of interviews with entrepreneurs and research by experts, 58 companies were selected for the 5th BMC program, including 11 newcomers, 16 Gold Award winners, and 31 consecutive winners. The selected companies had combined revenue of RMB1.8 trillion, accounting for about 1.5% of China’s GDP, and have maintained profitable growth from 2018 to 2022, with average compound revenue growth of 17%, demonstrating their “power of excellence”.

Of the 58 winners, 58% are in the industrial manufacturing and consumer (including retail) sectors, suggesting that even the most traditional industries can work wonders in an economic downturn if they are driven by the engines of management excellence, breakthroughs in high-speed innovation, and enduring corporate cultures. In addition to the 69% of enterprises from Guangdong, Beijing, Shandong, Jiangsu, and Shanghai, outstanding private enterprises from other provinces and cities now represent nearly a third of the list, indicating that the overall strength of more local private enterprises is increasing and there are many potential champions to be discovered.

Frank Xu, Deloitte Private China Managing Partner, says, “The BMC program utilizes Deloitte’s “Criteria for Management Excellence” global framework to comprehensively evaluate candidates’ strategy, capability, commitment, and financial strength, as well as providing continuous insights into the outstanding management practices of China’s leading private sector companies.

“During the ups and downs of the economic cycle, many BMC companies have gone through transformation and upgrading, completing their evolution of excellence. It is not easy for BMC Gold Award winners to not only possess superior financial indicators, but to also thrive across economic and business cycles to achieve resilient growth.”

Zhao Jian, Best Managed Companies Program Managing Partner, adds, “Through interviews and research with BMC experts, we found that the average R&D investment of this year’s award-winning listed companies is much higher than the average among A-share companies, and they have excelled in internationalization development. BMC awardees’ continuous excellence and evolution in the face of external challenges lie in their sustained “integrated innovation”, which makes enterprises more market-sensitive, more sustainable in R&D, more forward-looking in products, and more far-reaching in brand influence.

“BMC enterprises have succeeded not only through product and technology innovation, but also possess more innovative digital means to strengthen customer insights, address social needs, lead their industries to create change, and have the awareness to transform their material and business values into team values and a sense of mission, inspiring their people and maintaining enterprise vigor and vitality. This sense of diversity and innovation is driving BMC’s award winners progress towards being world-class companies.”

Teresa Lee, Alternate Chief Executive and Head of Greater China of Bank of Singapore’s (BOS) Hong Kong Branch, says, “BOS is delighted to be the co-sponsor and judge of the China BMC Award for the fifth consecutive year. We will continue to work together with the BMC program to pass on the spirit of entrepreneurial excellence and help more Chinese private enterprises achieve greater social value and impact in the Asia-Pacific region.”

Prof. Xu Yan, Associate Dean of HKUST Business School, said, ” Innovation and change is the key to business success. As the co-initiator and strategic academic partner of the BMC program, HKUST Business School is committed to working with partners to promote the BMC program. Through the application of professional knowledge in business and management research, HKUST Business School will continue to help Chinese enterprises enhance their management, and augment their impact in the areas of internationalization experience, innovation management, corporate governance, and management systems.”

Liu Xiao, General Manager of Harvard Business Review China (Chinese edition), adds, “Private enterprises are vital force in China’s economy. Harvard Business Review is committed to providing thoughtful management insights and sharing leading management practices to help Chinese enterprises shape their influence in a fast-developing business world and tell more Chinese stories well.”

At the 5th BMC Awards Ceremony, 58 award winners that exemplify the theme of “Journey of Innovation”, discussed how to achieve “Evolution of Excellence” through multi-dimensional innovation in product and technology, organization and back-office, and customer and advanced insights. Deloitte China will use BMC as a platform to invite more outstanding Chinese private enterprises to speak jointly to the world, delivering the important co-creation of platforms and enterprises and continuing to build the influence of China’s outstanding private companies.

We are thankful that Shopee provides sellers like us with a wide range of marketing tools and seller programs, which increase our exposure and enable us to grow our business. Together with Shopee, we believe that we can create a fun, engaging and meaningful shopping experience through e-commerce.”

Agiontex has seen its revenue tripled since operating on Shopee three years ago. It has plans to focus on affiliate marketing to boost sales traffic in 2023. To reach out to a large pool of online consumers, Agiontex will continue to participate in Seller Center campaigns and promote its products on Shopee Live.
