We heard from the industry and community that they wished all the APIs were in one place and they could do more with them. So we created a whole week of APIs with a series of learning and hands-on events from 15 to 21 March.

The Smart Nation API coLAB provided the opportunity to share use cases in a variety of sectors and offered easy access to more than 150 APIs from government and businesses in Singapore.

We found partners in startups, SMEs, innovation teams and they all came down to join us in creating the Smart Nation API coLAB, an exciting week of API-related activity. With the support of our Lead Partners, Accenture and Intel Mashery, we opened the gates of the API Economy to our participants.

Aside from developers and data scientists, we got to hear from business leaders and marketing professionals about their perspectives on digital business and the influence of APIs.
