About The Event
The SPARK Digital Leaders Summit is a place where leadership, tech innovation and business strategy converge. Our goal for the Summit is to provide Digital Leaders with the insight and guidance they need to navigate the future with confidence. While organisations have just set their sails and ride the wave of the 4th industrial revolution, OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google’s Bard and renewed sustainability commitments toward a net-zero future made headlines early 2023.
These game-changers sent shockwaves around the world, thrusting both governments and companies to the edge of the next revolution, Industry 5.0 (5IR).
Contrary to the stiff competitive landscape today, 5IR places greater focus on human-machine collaboration, ecosystem and partnership building, sustainability (ESG), and in developing long-term resilience.
Green is the colour that defines today’s trade advantage, and data is the new currency that will tip the balance in global economic powers.
This summit aims to bring together leading practitioners in Asia, representing diverse viewpoints across industries, to expand partnership ecosystems and exchange valuable insights to promote safe and ethical use of AI, navigate data security and sovereignty, as well as to achieve better sustainability outcomes as a global, collaborative ecosystem.
