Singapore, July 12, 2024 - Cyberlite is proud to announce that we have been honoured with the prestigious Catalyst award by the IMDA for our significant contributions to the Digital for Life (DfL) movement.
The award ceremony took place on July 5, 2024 at the DfL Partners Appreciation event, where Minister Josephine Teo presented the award. The event was graced by the presence of President Tharman Shanmugaratnam, who serves as the patron of the DfL movement.
