Google DeepMind is establishing a new AI research lab in Singapore to drive the advancement and practical application of artificial intelligence across the Asia-Pacific region. The initiative underscores Google’s ongoing commitment to fostering innovation and expanding its presence in the area. Over the past year, DeepMind’s Asia-Pacific team has more than doubled in size, reflecting growing momentum and investment in the region. The new lab will bring together top-tier research scientists, software engineers, and AI impact specialists dedicated to enhancing Gemini and other frontier AI technologies. A key focus will be on ensuring these systems are linguistically and culturally inclusive, addressing the region’s rich diversity of languages, dialects, and user needs. This effort aims to make AI more accessible, effective, and relevant for communities across Asia-Pacific. By anchoring its research in Singapore—a global hub for technology and innovation—Google DeepMind is positioning itself to collaborate closely with local institutions, startups, and governments to develop AI solutions that deliver tangible benefits. The lab will also contribute to broader goals such as improving healthcare, environmental sustainability, and education through responsible AI development. The announcement was shared on the Google DeepMind blog, highlighting the company’s long-term vision for inclusive and impactful AI innovation in the region.
