Kampong Glam to become 1st digitally enabled neighbourhood under Retail ITM
KAMPONG Glam could soon become Singapore's first digitally enabled neighbourhood. The Malay enclave has been identified as the first of many neighbourhoods that will undergo a digital revitalisation, as part of the the Retail Industry Transformation Map (ITM).
"Kampong Glam, a traditional neighbourhood that is both rich in culture and heritage, will embark on a journey to transform the precinct and its merchants," announced the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) at its first-year anniversary event on Friday.
IMDA and partners will co-develop a digital roadmap to enhance the digital capabilities of merchants in Kampong Glam and transform the visitor experience in the precinct. IMDA's partners include Spring Singapore, the Singapore Malay Chambers of Commerce and Industry, and One Kampong Glam association.
