Singapore, 13 October 2026 – Lithan Academy has won the SME Innovation Excellence Award 2026 for its Adaptive CLaaS® solution at SMEs Go Digital Day 2026. Lithan Academy was recognised as one of 15 winners in the Innovation Excellence category, among 30 award recipients selected from 290 participants, marking a significant milestone for the organisation and the people whose teamwork, dedication, and collaboration made this achievement possible.
Presented under the inaugural SME AI Impact Awards 2026, the award recognises enterprises that develop proprietary AI tools to address business needs and create meaningful impact. For Lithan Academy, this recognition represents more than an industry accolade. It celebrates the collective efforts of its people in advancing practical, AI-driven innovation and digital transformation.
A Shared Achievement Made Possible by Our People
Behind this recognition is the combined effort of Lithan Academy’s technology team, apprentices, learning management team, and everyone involved in developing, implementing, and supporting Adaptive CLaaS®.
Through teamwork, dedication, and collaboration, these teams brought together technical expertise, learning management capabilities, and practical business understanding to address real challenges in workforce development.
From developing AI-powered solutions and refining learning processes to supporting implementation and improving learner experiences, each contribution played an important role in bringing Adaptive CLaaS® forward.
This achievement reflects the commitment of our people to continuously learn, innovate, and create value together. It demonstrates how collaboration across teams can translate ideas and technology into meaningful outcomes.
Bringing Our Learn2Innovate4Growth Culture to Life
At Lithan Academy, innovation goes beyond introducing new technologies. It is embedded in our Learn2Innovate4Growth (LIG) culture, where continuous learning, innovation, and growth form the foundation of how our people work and develop.
This culture fosters lifelong learning to keep pace with evolving business and technology landscapes through Learn, encourages creating value by solving problems differently and applying digital innovation skills through Innovate, and drives continuous capability development and adaptation to changing business needs through Growth. Together, these dimensions foster a growth mindset where our people are empowered to learn continuously, contribute to innovation, and create value through their daily work.
The SME Innovation Excellence Award reflects this culture in action, demonstrating what our people can achieve through teamwork, dedication, and collaboration when learning, innovation, and growth are integrated into everyday operations.
Why Adaptive CLaaS® Matters
Adaptive CLaaS® is Lithan Academy’s AI-powered personalised learning system, designed to bridge AI skills gaps and build a productive workforce.
The solution addresses key workforce development challenges, including lengthy curriculum development, difficulty scaling personalised learner support, and delayed learner intervention.
Through three integrated modules, CLaaS® Developer, CLaaS® Mentor, and CLaaS® Manager, the platform reduces curriculum development work and extends personalised learner support beyond trainer capacity.
CLaaS® Developer uses generative AI to support curriculum development, while CLaaS® Mentor provides adaptive personalised learning and on-demand learner guidance. CLaaS® Manager enables data-driven learner monitoring and management through a consolidated view of learner progress.
Supported by human-in-the-loop learning delivery, AI handles repetitive curriculum development and routine learner guidance, while curriculum teams and trainers retain responsibility for content quality and complex interventions.
Adaptive CLaaS® has demonstrated 75% faster curriculum development and 60% less manual monitoring and support, highlighting how AI-powered learning technologies can improve operational efficiency while strengthening personalised workforce development.
Celebrating Our People and a Culture of Innovation
The SME Innovation Excellence Award 2026 is a proud milestone for Lithan Academy and a shared achievement for everyone who contributed to the success of Adaptive CLaaS®.
Beyond the recognition, it reflects the dedication of our technology team, apprentices, learning management team, and everyone who worked together to turn innovation into practical outcomes.
As Lithan Academy continues to advance AI-powered adaptive learning and workforce transformation, this achievement reinforces the importance of building a culture where people continuously learn, innovate, and grow together.
Today, we celebrate not only the award but also the people behind it. Their collective contributions bring our Learn2Innovate4Growth culture to life and demonstrate what we can accomplish through teamwork, dedication, and collaboration.
