Singapore – October 30, 2025 – TACTUN, a deep-tech company developing AI-driven industrial controllers and a no-code automation platform for machinery manufacturers, has been selected as one of the Top 60 Global Startups to advance to the SLINGSHOT 2025 Domain Finals in the Manufacturing, Trade & Connectivity category.
The competition, organized by Enterprise Singapore (EnterpriseSG) as part of the Singapore Week of Innovation and Technology (SWITCH 2025), is one of the world’s most prestigious startup events, attracting a record 7,000 applications from over 150 markets worldwide.

As part of this recognition, TACTUN’s CEO and Co-Founder, Rafayel Ghasabyan, was invited to Singapore to join the exclusive SLINGSHOT Physical Immersion Program — a three-day in-person experience designed to connect founders with global investors, accelerators, and innovation leaders across Asia’s rapidly expanding tech ecosystem.

During the program, Rafayel presented TACTUN’s pitch to an international panel of judges and ecosystem partners, highlighting how the company’s AI-native controller and no-code software platform are transforming how intelligent machines are designed, tested, and deployed — enabling manufacturers to accelerate R&D and build the next generation of autonomous systems.

“Being selected among the world’s top 60 startups is a great validation of our mission to build the brain for machinery,” said Rafayel Ghasabyan, CEO of TACTUN. “The experience in Singapore was incredibly valuable — connecting with inspiring founders, investors, and partners who share our vision for the future of manufacturing.”
