Singapore “The Straits Times”: Singapore, Chongqing firms ink 17 technology deals

“Singapore-based technology start-up Fooyo is developing an interactive platform that will promote Singapore’s tourist attractions to visitors from China.

Fooyo, which also has offices in Chongqing, is working with tourism companies TTG Asia Media and TriStar International Event Management. The platform will sit on China’s most popular messaging app WeChat, which has more than one billion active users.

Users can input their budget and intended length of stay into the platform, which will then generate a customised itinerary.

Fooyo co-founder Liu Yangfan said it is betting on China being one of the first countries to open cross-border travel with Singapore when the Covid-19 situation allows.”

“With our platform, we’re looking at and preparing for the potential resumption of travel after Covid-19.”
