The battlespace has evolved. The objectives remain the same but tactics have changed. "The Cognitive Game" explores how critical corporate supply chains are impacted by cognitive attacks. These attacks play out in the digital and physical worlds, on the surface they may seem like cyber attacks or attacks in the media by activists but they go deeper than initially imagined. We will look at what it means for countries and corporations to fight a conflict in the collective minds of constituent populations. The convergence of human knowledge has come down to how leaders will marshal their resources, but what are the strategic resources in cognitive warfare?

Drones and Smart Cities – A response to COVID-19

To drone or not to drone, is no longer a question.  The COVID-19 pandemic has brought into sharp focus the need to remove the human touch from the delivery of many goods and services.  How will we humanise this experience in the coming years and strike a balance between the buzz of drones and the friendly smile of a delivery person?  According to the latest data from the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, 55 per cent of the world’s population lives in urban areas.

As Malaysia moves to developed nation status it needs to develop a world-class sporting culture that is both positive and sustainable.  In line with global best practices, sports and the business community go hand in hand, eventually developing a thriving sports industry. Recent social listening data provided by Harvestmedia suggests that several sporting community clusters exist on social media, together with recent search trends which regularly sees sports-related searches above entertainment and politics, which suggests that companies and brands are missing the boat when it comes to community engagement in various sports. To address the gap “the Malaysia Global Business Forum will support the development of sports in two strategic ways; the development of premier clubs that are within a national structure and [...]
