CYS at SWITCH 2025: Where Innovation Meets Connection

A Report by CYS Global Remit Digital Media Marketing Team

Last week, our team from CYS Global Remit attended SWITCH 2025 – the Singapore Week of Innovation and Technology, Asia's leading event that brings together innovators, entrepreneurs, and investors from across the world. The energy at the venue was electric, with ideas flowing freely and creativity on full display.

Innovation With Impact: A New Direction

This year's showcase revealed a clear shift in focus—innovation with impact. Many exhibitors were steering towards healthcare, well-being, AI, and robotics, highlighting how technology is now playing a bigger role in improving daily life and shaping future industries.

The variety on display was impressive: from AI-powered diagnostic tools to wearable health monitors, and from collaborative robots designed for elderly care to sustainable tech solutions addressing climate challenges. It was clear that innovation is no longer just about what's technologically possible, but about what's meaningful and necessary.

The Star of the Show: Robotic Cuisine

And the one innovation that completely stole the show for us? An unmanned kitchen—a fully automated setup where robotic chefs could whip up a hot meal in just five minutes. No humans, no waiting, just precision cooking done perfectly every time.

Watching it in action felt like a glimpse into the future of dining. The robots moved with remarkable efficiency, coordinating multiple tasks simultaneously whilst maintaining exacting standards. It raised fascinating questions about the future of food service, scalability, and how automation might reshape industries we've long considered irreplaceably human.

Connecting With Tomorrow's Innovators

Beyond the tech marvels, SWITCH 2025 provided us with an excellent platform to meet emerging start-ups and forward-thinking entrepreneurs. Many of them are looking to expand across borders and shared a common challenge - handling international payments and multi-currency transactions efficiently.

That's where our conversations naturally took shape. We were glad to share how CYS Global Remit helps businesses expand with fast, secure, and reliable cross-border payment solutions. Whether it's simplifying fund transfers or ensuring smooth currency settlements, we make international transactions effortless - so companies can focus on what they do best: innovating and growing.

Common pain points we heard included: 

• Delays in settling payments with overseas suppliers 

• Currency volatility affecting pricing strategies 

• Difficulty navigating different regulatory requirements across markets 

• Hidden fees eroding profit margins on international deals

These conversations reinforced why our work matters. As businesses scale globally, payment infrastructure shouldn't be a bottleneck - it should be an enabler.

Learning From Industry Leaders

Beyond the exhibits, SWITCH 2025 also featured insightful talks and panel discussions on topics like AI adoption, sustainable tech, and digital transformation. These sessions reminded us how crucial it is for traditional financial experts and new-age innovators to work hand in hand - something we at CYS have always believed in.

Moving Forward Together

At CYS Global Remit, we're excited to continue supporting this vibrant ecosystem of innovators and start-ups with trusted, fast, and secure payment solutions that help turn ambition into action.

Events like SWITCH 2025 remind us why we do what we do. Every groundbreaking innovation, every ambitious expansion plan, and every bold entrepreneurial vision needs solid financial infrastructure to succeed. We're proud to be that foundation for businesses ready to take on the world.

Until next time, SWITCH—thank you for the inspiration and the connections that keep us moving forward.
