Such solutions keep businesses moving forward to confidently tackle challenges regardless of markets or models.<\/p>\n<p>The new Enterprise Innovation Scheme initiated by the government will also significantly reduce tax deductions for key activities within the innovation route. For Singapore to truly become a socio-economic and digital powerhouse, innovation is a critical pillar and foundation of a modern economy. Companies must treat innovation as innate, not just something in need when the seas are rough. The pace of innovation is dramatically accelerating. As a result, every company needs to tap the power of the collective to solve and scale.<\/p>\n<p>One way would be to adopt a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sap.com\/sea\/products\/technology-platform\/low-code.html\">low-code solution<\/a> in order to accelerate development and automation in creating solutions for the organisation. Such a solution can increase productivity by reducing the amount of time needed for manual coding using visual processing and drag-and-drop capabilities on a low or no-code development platform. Delivering applications more quickly will free resources into other development initiatives and scaling up value creation, making it easier for midsized companies to expand.<\/p>\n<p>Companies would also need to boost their productivity by looking to reskilling and upskilling their workforce to be future-ready.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Empowering a future-ready workforce<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>While many SMEs have already made inroads to future-proof their businesses during the pandemic, there is still much to be done to encourage organisations to empower their workforce to thrive and drive sustainable success. There remains an increased emphasis on <a href=\"https:\/\/jobs.sap.com\/go\/SAP-Jobs-in-Singapore\/944301\/\">growing our own local talent pool<\/a> \u2013 particularly for deep tech sectors that are the pillars of our innovation ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>In a similar fashion, 51风流is helping to <a href=\"https:\/\/news.sap.com\/sea\/2021\/10\/sap-and-temasek-polytechnic-continue-successful-collaboration-to-empower-singapore-workforce-for-skills-based-economy\/\">equip mid-career jobseekers in boosting their employability<\/a> for the Infocomm Technology, Supply Chain and Human Resources sectors.
