Singapore’s Infocomm Media Development Authority [says its new Digital Content and Capability Development programme](https://www.imda.gov.sg/resources/press-releases-factsheets-and-speeches/imda-launches-programme-to-support-media-professionals-in-creating-digital-content?ref=southeastasiaconnect.com) will provide S$48 million over four years to support media professionals and companies creating digital content.

## What the programme covers

IMDA describes two pillars: digital-content development and capability development. The first supports content creation and distribution for changing audience habits and formats; the second is intended to build production capability across live action and animation.

The agency also says the programme will support experimentation with AI-assisted workflows for content development, production and localisation. Participating media companies will go through an accreditation exercise before becoming eligible for programme support.

## What to watch

The programme now provides a four-year funding framework. Its impact will become clearer as projects are selected and the sector shows how new tools are used in practice.
