Leveraging the promise of technology to advance inclusive, equitable, and sustainable growth in Southeast Asia

About us

The Tech For Good Institute is a non-profit organisation on a mission to raise understanding of issues and inform policy so that the promise of technology and the digital economy may be leveraged to advance inclusive, equitable and sustainable growth. Digitalisation is one of the key transitions of this decade. Digitalisation’s general enabling technologies and new business models also play a key role in facilitating other significant transitions, such as the shift to low-carbon and circular economies, and distributed systems of power and information. With a population twice the size of the US and strong demographics, Southeast Asia (SE Asia)’s digital economy is evolving rapidly. Technology has and will continue to have a tremendous impact in aiding the region’s development. We are optimistic about technology’s potential to advance growth, while recognising that innovation shapes and is shaped by cultural, social, political, and economic contexts. The Tech For Good Institute aims to serve as a platform for research, conversations and collaborations focused on SE Asia but connected to the rest of the world. Our work focuses on topics at the intersection of technology, society and the economy, and that are intrinsically linked to the development in SE Asia. Specifically, the Institute will cover the areas of Innovation and Digital Progress, evaluated through the lens of Sustainable Growth for SE Asia. We seek to understand and inform policy with rigour, balance and perspective, through research, effective outreach and evidence-based recommendations. The Institute is a non-profit organisation, founded by Grab, SE Asia’s leading superapp, to advance the vision of a thriving, innovative SE Asia for all. We welcome opportunities for partnership and support, financial or in-kind, from other organisations sharing our vision of leveraging the promise of technology and the digital economy to advance inclusive, equitable and sustainable growth.
