S.M.A.R.T Entrepreneurship X Global - Peru
About This Course
The Singapore-Peru partnership exemplifies the growing collaboration between Asia and Latin America, underpinned by shared goals of innovation, sustainability, and economic growth. Frameworks such as the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) and the Pacific Alliance advance this relationship, promoting trade liberalization, digital transformation, and capacity building. Singapore’s expertise in smart urban solutions and digital trade complements Peru's rich natural resources and emerging sectors like agribusiness. The Peru-Singapore Free Trade Agreement (PeSFTA) further enhances ties by cutting tariffs on over 87% of Singapore’s exports to Peru.
A cornerstone of this partnership is Peru's Chancay mega port, a strategic hub linking Asia and South America. It reduces shipping times by over a third (35 to 23 days) and cuts logistics costs by 20%, positioning itself as South America's logistical hub and its first smart, green deep-water port.
