Earlier this month, the SME Centre @ SMCCI team gathered for our Planning Day to plan our priorities and goals for the year ahead and bond over pottery painting. ๐Ÿ’ผโœจ

The session marked the close of a busy financial year. Reflecting on our journey, our Centre Director, Shura Ishak, shared a note of appreciation with the team:

"As we come to the close of this financial year, I would like to thank everyone for your support, trust, and commitment. It has been a year of challenges, changes, and important milestones, but through teamwork, resilience, and perseverance, we managed to achieve this together. I am truly proud of the SME Centre @ SMCCI team and the dedication each of you has shown."

Even when things got tough, the team stayed focused, backed each other up, and worked hard to deliver results for our SMEs.

We are stepping into this new chapter with clear goals and a shared commitment to helping Singaporean businesses grow. To our partners and the SMEs we walk alongside, thank you for your trust. Letโ€™s make the year ahead another great one! ๐Ÿ‘‹

The way your customers find you has changed more in the last six months than in the last ten years. Today, people arenโ€™t just browsing a list of links on Google; they are asking AI assistants for recommendations, using voice search while driving, and looking for instant answers on Google Maps.

If your business isnโ€™t โ€œAI-ready,โ€ you arenโ€™t just falling behind โ€“ youโ€™re becoming invisible.

Join us for a focused session where Hatta Aziz, Managing Director of Geo Growth, pulls back the curtain on how AI search engines like Gemini and ChatGPT decide which local businesses to recommend and which to ignore.

โœ… Learn how AI and search engines choose which local businesses to recommend
โœ… Find out how to audit your own visibility โ€“ learn where you rank in Search
โœ… Gain clarity on how to predict trends, and what customers are interested in to drive new business
โœ… Get the know how to outperform bigger named/branded competitors

Date: 15 July 2026
Time: 3pm - 5pm
