Had a brilliant time working with Tech Talent Assembly (TTAB) and Blag Events to host and moderate the Thought-Leadership Seminar and Appreciation Dinner recently.
In the afternoon, I had the privilege to welcome the attendees to the seminar, introduce each speaker, bridge and link segments, and moderate discussion, with these amazing speakers and panel members.
While moderating the panel, I was soaking in what the audience was really after and what the panel members were really iterating, and then framing, layering and eventually synthesising all thoughts into what is consumable, relevant and value-adding for the audience – live, onstage.
Some humour but no lame jokes for that afternoon! And what a joy it was, to see opened eyes and heartfelt thanks both on and off stage.
And right into the evening, I once again had the honour to welcome guest-of-honour Senior Minister of State Tan Kiat How and all to the appreciation dinner, before guiding proceedings through multiple MOU partnership signings, launch of a new AI council and recognition of partners. It was a night of celebration – of milestones, partnerships and people.
Amidst all that AI is making news about, these back-to-back events were really about, if I could say – ‘People for People’. That regardless of where AI is and where each of us may be with AI – we are not alone – because the people behind TTAB and partners are there alongside everyone in the tech community to co-create a stronger future together.
Grateful to have supported this, alongside the amazing team at TTAB and Blag Events!
Is AI a threat or the ultimate tool? 🤖
I was happy to host and moderate a panel discussion with top industry leaders and experts at TTAB’s Thought-Leadership Seminar for their quick takes on how artificial intelligence is changing the future of work.

I am happy to hear one of them actually iterating a point that I actually bridged – both in between two heavy plenary sessions and before the end of the panel dialogue! Guess which is it? 😉
