Singapore
STARTUP activity continues apace as two homegrown ventures announced developments that would help Singapore-based SMEs market their services and boost productivity.
The first, Page Advisor, is believed to be South-east Asia's first real-time, mobile marketplace for home maintenance and lifestyle services. Backed by Singapore Member of Parliament Inderjit Singh, it made its debut here on Wednesday. A free app, Page Advisor allows users to access and hire over 1,500 service providers from some 100 specialised services ranging from air-con technicians, electricians and plumbers to car groomers, entertainers, pet groomers and private chefs.
