To succeed in today’s business, companies must have the ability to attract talent globally and learn to nurture them. Businesses must also learn to act swiftly as the world around us is changing quite rapidly. I would also like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to EDB and SICCI here in Singapore for providing us a platform to be nimble».
