The invitation is extended to insurtech and ecosystem startups interested in or intending to enter the Singapore market. 

Eligible participants should be B2C-focused, with direct distribution in Singapore, and have propositions centred around gig workers, employee wellness, physical and mental wellness, and/or financial literacy.

The first edition of Singlife Connect, launched late last year, concluded in August, with five startups—GetPaid, Outside, Octomate, Mito, and CHOYS—successfully graduating and launching live commercial propositions in the market.
