About Us

Creative Technologists Singapore (CTSG) is an interdisciplinary community of makers, creators, and supporters based in Singapore. A hub for experimental and boundary-blurring possibilities, CTSG welcomes all–arts practitioners, technical folks, organisers, and public patrons to connect and work on something cool together.

Founded in September 2023, we've organized multiple Creative Tech Pecha Kucha events with various members of the community taking the lead in different iterations.

Vision

Creative Technologists Singapore (CTSG) aims to cultivate a fluid and interdisciplinary community – for creators, technologists and supporters in Singapore to experiment, learn, and build together.
