Highlights at Tech3 Forum 2021

Tech3 Forum Explored the Need for Resetting and Rebuilding in the Post Pandemic World

Themed “Reset or Rebuild? Thriving Responsibly in the Post Pandemic World”, the SCS Tech3 Forum was held on 15 October as a hybrid event. Its scale with 125 in-person and 400 virtual participants was the largest since the pandemic started.

Aligned with the theme, Mrs Josephine Teo, Minister for Communications and Information, urged the audience to deliberate the next bound of growth for Singapore’s digital economy:

• How can we harness the power of digital to rebuild our economy, to create new opportunities for our people?

• How do we wield this power responsibly, to build a sustainable digital future for everyone?

• How might we take this opportunity to redefine and set the values that shape our community, so that all of us have a stake in this digital future?

Keynote speaker, Mr Piyush Gupta, Group CEO of DBS, subsequently inspired the audience with his answers – “Reset and Rebuild” and the need to stay anchored and continue strengthening what we have built as people, as a society, as humanity and our world economic systems.

“There is no doubt that digitalisation will be an increasingly pervasive force in rebuilding our economy. But given the pervasiveness and power of digital technology, it has become an imperative to also think about how to harness it responsibly. Responsibility can be considered in at least two ways – inclusion and safety.

– Mrs Josephine Teo, Minister for Communications and Information
