Christine Boynton, senior Air Transport editor at Aviation Week Network, spoke with Gilbert Sim, director for Aftermarket Global Operations Technology and CORE at Pratt & Whitney, about why it sees a need for the Singapore Technology Accelerator (STA) and why Singapore is a good location to validate these innovations before it are rolled out worldwide.

In September 2022, Pratt & Whitney announced it would open a Singapore Technology Accelerator. They have since delivered almost 40 technology insertion projects for both engine centers and repair shops in P&W’s MRO footprint.
