SME productivity challenges often come down to management capacity and workforce skills as much as to finance or technology. This session explores how talent, management skills and embedded support services can be built into SME financing models, and which institutional changes would make bundled financial and non-financial services viable at scale.
Tram Anh Nguyen, CFTE Co-Founder, joins the panel, moderated by Carissa Reiniger of Silver Lining. Forum Stage, Peridot 202-203, Level 2, Singapore EXPO. Open to Forum participants.

Building on CFTE's collaboration with the FCA through the Supercharged Academy and the AI Spotlight Observatory.
A UK-Singapore conversation grounded in what innovators have actually built and tested.
At the UK Pavilion during Singapore FinTech Festival 2026, CFTE is planning a discussion with the FCA and UK fintech innovators on how the UK supports financial innovation. Building on CFTE's collaboration with the FCA through the Supercharged Academy and the AI Spotlight Observatory, the session would showcase initiatives such as the Supercharged Sandbox alongside practical experiences from UK innovators, highlighting opportunities for collaboration between the UK and Singapore financial ecosystems.
Date, time, speakers and participating firms will be added as soon as the Pavilion organisers confirm them.
This session is a proposal until the Pavilion organisers confirm the slot and participants.
Four initiatives with complementary but distinct functions.
The October 2026 UK-Singapore Financial Dialogue joint statement records progress under the AI in Finance Partnership, including these initiatives. It is wider context for this session, not an endorsement of it.
An illustrative flow, subject to the final format agreed with the organisers.
Responsible AI innovation in finance needs technology, credible evidence, institutional understanding and routes to adoption, and many firms struggle to explain their product in terms a regulated buyer can evaluate.
A concise view of how experimentation, founder capability, visibility and shared evidence fit together, without implying that taking part in any initiative is an FCA endorsement.
What they built, how they tested it, what evidence a financial institution asked for, what they changed in response and what they learned about operating across markets.
Where participants can learn more, connect with the firms directly, or talk to CFTE about the capability-building side of AI adoption.
For anyone interested in UK-Singapore collaboration on responsible AI in finance.
Separately from this planned session, CFTE will be at its booth in the UK Pavilion throughout Friday 20 November to discuss capability diagnostics, AI leadership and AI Chief of Staff. Stand details will follow.
