Communication 21 Media Group Makes a Major Impact at ITAP — Launches Onboarding for Industry Connect: Singapore with Overwhelming Response
Singapore, 16th October 2025 — Communication 21 Media Group made a bold statement at Industrial Transformation Asia Pacific (ITAP) today, capturing the attention of industry leaders and innovators across the region. Amid dynamic exhibits on AI, smart manufacturing, and advanced industrial technologies, the Group formally launched the onboarding process for Industry Connect: Singapore, the latest national edition under the ASEAN-Connect Initiative — and the reception was extraordinary.
Strong Industry Validation at ITAP
At its ITAP booth, Communication 21 drew significant traffic from manufacturers, automation providers, and technology stakeholders. The response confirmed a clear appetite for regional visibility and digital integration. Many Singapore-based companies signed up immediately, excited at the chance to be part of a broader ASEAN industrial network.
Industry observers noted that ITAP 2025 is shaping up to be a pivotal event for Asia’s manufacturing transformation. According to a recent press release from the ITAP organisers:
“With a wave of new exhibitors and transformative AI technologies, ITAP 2025 stands at the forefront of industrial change in Asia Pacific.”
This context amplifies Communication 21’s move — positioning Industry Connect: Singapore not just as a directory, but as a strategic platform for ASEAN–China collaboration and industrial integration.
Industry Connect: Singapore — Free Ads, Instant Visibility
Industry Connect: Singapore offers 100% free advertising — in both print and digital formats — for Singapore-registered industrial and commercial enterprises. This includes QR-enabled print media linked to AI-augmented digital catalogs, powered by Catalog Connect. The directory is scheduled for release next year, and Singapore firms responded with enthusiasm to early signups:
• Free entry with no subscription or hidden fees
• Seamless QR-catalog linkage for printed ads
• AI-driven business matching to surface relevant partnerships
