Jack in the Box created its latest Munchie Meal in collaboration with Grammy-winning artist, streamer and podcaster T-Pain, and the T-Pain Munchie Meal is a new late-night option to fuel gaming sessions, creative sparks and more. “Late nights are when I’m at my most creative—whether I’m in the studio or gaming with my crew,” said T-Pain, “Jack has always been the spot for those sessions. This Munchie Meal hits every craving when I’m up all night chasing wins.” With T-Pain Munchie Meal, there’s a choice between a Burg-R-Tater Melt or Chick-N-Tater Melt, a taco, medium seasoned curly fries, a small drink, a stuffed cookie and a collectible T-Pain air freshener.

This gamer-approved meal follows the debut of Jack’s CEO Minigames in Fortnite earlier this year and launches alongside a new custom map, Jack Zone Wars.

At AWS Summit Singapore 2025, Amazon Web Services (AWS) unveiled new partnerships, programmes, and investments under its AI Spring Singapore initiative, reinforcing its commitment to supporting the country’s Smart Nation and National AI Strategy 2.0 (NAIS).

Launched in 2024, the flagship AI programme spans six pillars—Public Sector, Workforce, Enterprise, Startups, Communities, and Research and Development. This year’s summit also marked AWS’s 15th anniversary in Singapore, with new developments aimed at accelerating AI adoption and digital transformation nationwide.

“Singapore’s bold AI vision demands collaboration across sectors to succeed,” said Elsie Tan, Country Manager, Worldwide Public Sector, Singapore at AWS. “By bridging public and private innovation, strengthening digital infrastructure, and investing in future talent, we’re helping transform Singapore into a global AI hub where technology drives positive societal impact.”

New collaborations in education and talent development

AWS continues to scale its education and workforce efforts with new initiatives aimed at nurturing local AI talent. The most notable is its partnership with the National Institute of Education (NIE), where AWS will help establish the Technology for Education Centre (TEC). Based at NIE’s campus within Nanyang Technological University, TEC will offer cloud and AI training for faculty, facilitate joint research in analytics and AI, and provide hands-on workshops for students.

As part of this collaboration, AWS is also offering digital learning resources like AWS Skill Builder, designed to enhance NIE’s curriculum and upskill educators in cloud technology.

Temasek Polytechnic’s FutureX innovation centre is another key partner, offering practical AI resources for students and SMEs. AWS is targeting 5,000 learners annually in AI skills through its partnerships with polytechnics and institutes of higher learning.

The collaboration with Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) on its Company-Led Training (CLT) programme is also seeing traction. Through CLT, AWS supports graduates and mid-career professionals in structured roles that build digital skills on the job.

Transforming the public sector and enterprise landscape

At the Summit, AWS also highlighted collaborations with government agencies. Through a partnership with Synapxe, AWS powers HealthX Innovation Sandbox 2.0, a cloud platform that provides over 2,300 synthetic healthcare APIs, datasets, and simulation environments for safe development of digital health solutions.

The Ministry of Manpower (MOM) worked with AWS Partner NCS to upgrade its contact centre using generative AI. The result is a halving of inquiry handling times and seamless multilingual support across all four national languages.

In the enterprise space, AWS is working closely with IMDA’s GenAI x Digital Leaders initiative to help businesses deploy AI efficiently. This includes direct access to AWS technical experts, model developers, and implementation partners.

One success story is SaladStop!, which developed a generative AI assistant using Amazon Bedrock and Amazon SageMaker to provide personalised meal suggestions. The tool is expected to improve efficiency and double online orders.

bolttech, a Singapore-headquartered insurtech, is using Amazon Bedrock to build agentic AI bots that can process claims, answer policy queries, and generate customer responses autonomously. Employees are also empowered to develop internal AI applications using the same platform.

Gaming brand Razer is preparing to launch its AI Game Assistant and QA Companion on AWS Marketplace. Built on Amazon Bedrock, these tools provide real-time guidance and automated testing for game developers, and are part of the brand’s broader WYVRN AI ecosystem.

AI startup support and community outreach

AWS continues to invest in startups through the 2024 Generative AI Spotlight programme, which includes 40 companies, 12 of them from Singapore. These include Bunker Tech’s AI-enhanced analytics for finance, klikit’s AI-embedded POS tools, Reforged Labs’ AI-powered game marketing, and Level 3 AI’s automation solutions for business process outsourcing.

To drive broader public engagement with AI, AWS partnered with AI Singapore to launch the ASEAN Large Language Model (LLM) League—a gamified challenge that has provided hands-on AI experience to more than 4,000 participants across ASEAN.

Community outreach also extends to grassroots learning through Gen-C, a volunteer-led movement supported by the National Library Board. Gen-C runs workshops covering topics like prompt engineering and model fine-tuning, with AWS providing cloud infrastructure and technical expertise.

In support of linguistic diversity, AWS and AI Singapore launched the Pan-Southeast Asia Generative AI Developer Challenge, encouraging regional developers to build local-language LLM applications using Amazon Bedrock and models like SEA-LION v3.5.

Launching innovation hub and strengthening R&D

A major announcement from the summit was the upcoming launch of the AWS Innovation Hub in Singapore, the first of its kind globally. The hub will showcase AI applications across over 50 industries—including finance, retail, manufacturing, and the public sector—and aims to drive real-world solutions through AWS technology and collaboration.

AWS also expanded its research footprint through partnerships with the National Healthcare Group (NHG) and A*STAR’s Advanced Remanufacturing and Technology Centre (ARTC). NHG’s Digital Innovation Studio and ARTC’s AI training initiatives are designed to build sector-specific AI capabilities. AWS also supported the launch of the Sectoral AI Centre of Excellence for Manufacturing.

Keynote insights from AWS and partners

In keynote sessions, Priscilla Chong, Country Manager at AWS Singapore, highlighted Singapore’s unique position to become a digital capital for ASEAN. She announced that AWS has now trained more than 5,000 individuals through its education partnerships and confirmed a US$12 billion investment in local infrastructure and talent over the coming years.

AWS VP of Technology, Mylan Thompson Bucha Vale, discussed the evolution of AWS’s infrastructure to support accelerated computing, Graviton chips, and its AI development tools like Amazon Bedrock and SageMaker. She emphasised how AWS is combining scalability, performance, and cost-efficiency to support next-generation AI workloads.

Razer’s Chief Strategy Officer, Lee Meng, showcased how the company is using AWS to scale its AI-powered tools for the gaming industry. QA Companion, for instance, automates testing processes and reduces quality assurance time by up to 50%, helping developers bring titles to market faster.

The Singapore Academy of Law and IMDA also presented their GPT Legal solution, which uses generative AI to summarise legal documents while preserving factual accuracy. Built on AWS, the platform supports Singapore’s legal professionals by reducing time spent on research and improving productivity.

Through these combined efforts—education, partnerships, community building, and technical innovation—AWS continues to deepen its investment in Singapore’s digital future.
