In its endeavours to achieve greater excellence in research collaboration with MIT, SMA has tapped on advanced technology as a means to bridge gaps in spatial distance and facilitate the communication of ideas. This is made possible though cutting-edge and user-friendly video conferencing tools which deliver high quality voice, video and data on demand from anywhere, at any time.

By facilitating interaction and communication between students and professors, more emphasis can be placed on the exchange of innovative ideas and discussions, paving the way for new discoveries or breakthroughs. As the meeting of minds is no longer constrained by the need for physical proximity, closer working relationships can be forged between students and professors from around the world by utilising interactive equipment. In this way, SMA hopes to promote and inculcate a culture of engaging in research collaboration through video conferencing.
