The study, published Friday, revealed that the economic contribution of the digital economy to Singapore's GDP nearly doubled to 106 billion Singapore dollars ($77.5 billion) in 2022, up from SG$58 billion in 2017, according to CNBC's calculations. The digital economy is divided into two parts: the information and communications sector; and digitalization in the rest of the economy. One-third of the digital economy was driven by the information and communications sector and two-thirds by digitalization in the rest of the economy. "The expansion of the digital economy has come on the back of increasing adoption of digital technologies by enterprises, which in turn contributed to the robust growth of tech manpower," IMDA said in the report. Comparatively, Singapore's digital economy performed better, contributing to 16.7% of its GDP in 2020.
