A.I. Ready SMEs (AiRS)
Empowering SMEs to Leverage AI to grow their Business
Lifelong Learning
AI-Ready SMEs (AiRS) with AI-Ready employees will be more competitive than non-AI-Ready SMEs. 95% of SMEs have adopted digital tools in their operations and only 4% have used AI or machine learning. AI will disrupt competition*. SMEs either become exponentially more competitive or be totally crushed by competition. There is no middle ground. Continual learning and innovation to embrace and adopt AI by employees and management is the way for SMEs to move forward.

Ownership
SG AI-Ready SME (AiRS) is a network of SMEs that wholeheartedly embraces the idea that Lifelong Learning is the only tool we have. We believe that SG companies have to change our mindset that it is the government’s responsibility to assist us. It is, in fact, our own responsibility to adopt AI to assist us to scale revenues and reduce cost.
AiRS Vision & Mission
We are dedicated to building an AI ecosystem focusing on AI applications & deployments, to support and facilitate new ideas with raising industry challenges and sharing best practices.

Our Vision:
(1) We bring together SMEs that are determined not just to survive but to thrive as AI disrupts the economy
(2) We will thrive because we desperately learn and passionately collaborate
(3) We are driven by enlightened self-interest that motivates us to create commercial and non-commercial value for each other and our customers

Our Mission:
We are dedicated to
building an AI ecosystem
focusing on AI applications & deployments
to support and facilitate new ideas
raising industry standards
and sharing best practices.
Core Values
1) Lead from the front :
We believe that time committed to learning about AI is an investment that is crucial. We need to continuously understand how AI can help our company increase sales and reduce cost.

2) Positive Attitude :
We aspire to form a community that embraces the culture of silicon valley, where the unselfish sharing of knowledge, information and help to a learning community builds a positive culture, builds one’s own reputation and ultimately benefits the members of the community. We share best practices and outcomes & encourage one another to be successful.

3) Self-Reliant :
We hope to engage with the government, but we do not depend on it. We are entrepreneurs. We see obstacles as opportunities for growth of new skills in our organisations.
