In July, 2023, the EU and Singapore announced their intention to "to negotiate an ambitious and modern digital trade agreement that contributes to our societies’ digital transformation, enables our companies and people to keep pace with the fast-evolving nature of the digital economy, and deepens and complements our existing preferential trade framework."

Successfully concluding negotiations on a Digital Trade Agreement would be a positive indicator of the EU's commitment to remain on the forefront of new technology and forms of trade, and could help set a model for future trade agreements.

This question will resolve positively if, according to major news reporting, the EU and Singapore sign a Digital Trade Agreement on or before December 31, 2024. The terms of the agreement are immaterial to the resolution of this question.
