Good Bards Selected for Meta’s First Llama Incubator Program in Singapore

Singapore, 4 April 2025 — Good Bards, the world’s first fully autonomous marketing department powered by Agentic AI, is proud to announce its selection into the Llama Incubator Program, launched by Meta in collaboration with SGInnovate, the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB), and a consortium of government and industry partners including IMDA, DISG, Enterprise Singapore, GovTech, AI Singapore, e27, and Deloitte.

As one of the 40 startups incubated through this transformative six-month initiative, Good Bards will gain dedicated access to Meta’s Llama 2 and Llama 3 open-source language models, compute resources, and customized mentorship from technical and business experts — all aimed at accelerating responsible AI innovation in Singapore. “When we applied, it wasn’t about riding a hype wave. It was about backing our ambition with the right kind of support,” said Alan Ho, Co-Founder of Good Bards.“This program is designed for builders. With Meta’s open models, we’re scaling responsibly, innovating with Llama, and building something that truly matters.”

As part of the Startup Track, Good Bards will engage in:

·       1:1 technical and business mentorship, including roadmap development and iterative feedback

·       Tailored technical training, product refinement, and go-to-market strategy support

·       Preparation for Demo Day in October 2025, where participants will present real-world use cases to investors, government stakeholders, and ecosystem partners

The Llama Incubator Program supports Singapore’s vision under Smart Nation 2.0 to empower local enterprises with safe and scalable open-source AI. Beyond product development, the program also emphasizes AI safety, with sessions focused on Meta’s Llama trust and safety tools, IMDA’s safety framework, and the AI Verify open-source testing toolkit.

“We built Good Bards so that SMEs could market without needing many tools and a full-time team,” added Cédrick Lunven, CTO of Good Bards. “With Meta’s models and the backing of Singapore’s AI leadership, we’re pushing that vision into new languages, markets, and verticals.”

Good Bards is honoured to be part of this inaugural cohort and extends its gratitude to David Ng, SGInnovate, and Senior Minister of State Dr. Janil Puthucheary for championing open innovation and the responsible use of AI across Southeast Asia.
