[Google] CLIWANT Joins Google AI Academy

The 23 AI startups in Asia-Pacific’s first AI Academy

This week, 23 startups from seven Asia-Pacific countries embarked on Google’s inaugural AI Academy, starting with a three-day boot camp in Singapore.

Imagine a world where AI helps you make smarter choices, gives you more personalized experiences and helps everyone feel included. This is what 23 AI startups from across the Asia-Pacific, all selected for Google for Startups' first AI Academy in the region, are trying to create. The program — where startups will gain mentorship, product training and networking opportunities to refine their AI products and grow their business — started this week with an interactive bootcamp in Singapore.

Hailing from Japan, Korea, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan and Singapore, these innovators are building AI collaborators for lawyers, democratizing influencer marketing with AI-generated avatars and expanding access to underserved areas like financial services and healthcare via AI-powered platforms. By mentoring these startups, we’re investing in a future where AI is used to solve pressing societal issues and create more opportunities.
