APS Mission

The Portuguese Association of Singapore (APS) is dedicated to promoting, celebrating, and advancing Portuguese culture and identity by creating meaningful connections among the Portuguese, the Portuguese-speaking community, and all friends of Portuguese culture living in Singapore.

Our mission goes beyond cultural celebration.

We aim to

  • Preserve and share heritage: Celebrate Portuguese traditions, language, gastronomy, music, and arts through events, festivals, and educational programs.
  • Strengthen community ties: Foster a welcoming environment for families, students, professionals, and entrepreneurs to connect, support one another, and build a sense of belonging.
  • Enable professional exchange: Provide a platform for networking, mentoring, and collaboration across industries, creating bridges between Portugal, Singapore, and the broader Lusophone world.
  • Promote Portugal as a global brand: Partner with businesses, institutions, and cultural organizations to increase visibility and strengthen the Portuguese presence abroad.
  • Empower future generations: Support youth, students, and young professionals in accessing opportunities for growth, career development, and cultural pride.

By combining culture, community, and commerce, APS seeks to evolve into a dynamic hub that not only celebrates heritage but also drives collaboration, innovation, and mutual understanding between Portugal and Singapore.
