𝗛𝗶𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽: 𝗔 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲! ☔️ It was great joining this past Saturday the "youth hiking library" on Kallang Riverside Park. This "hiking mentorship event" was organised by the Singapore Mentorship Committee (SMC) – a program that fosters collaboration between young minds and experienced business leaders. Unlike some of the other attendees (especially the mentees!), my dive into the world of computers started a little later – late teens to be exact. This different starting point gave more perspective to the sharing and made the discussions even more engaging. Special thanks to Chao Deng, CEO of HashKey Capital and President of HashKey Singapore, for sharing his insights as the guest speaker. And thank you to Dr. David Ong, the Founder & Chairman of SMC, for facilitating the networking and keeping the positive vibes flowing despite the unexpected weather. Some questions for further investigations: ▶ What's the future for cryptocurrencies like bitcoin? Have they failed as mainstream currencies but thrived as investable assets, evolving into a different type of financial instrument? ▶ Can the tokens, as evidences of your contributions, be considered the underlying assets of crypto moneys, and the benefits behind them? Security tokens and NFTs certainly represent ownership in underlying assets, offering a clear benefit. But how does the value proposition differ for the tokens utility (i.e.: to participate in the network's operations) and governance (i.e.: to vote on proposed changes, upgrades, or new features for the blockchain network or decentralised application)? ▶ Does Global Readiness transform into a key skillset for future success in our world becoming more globalised? This idea shared by Dr. David Ong of "global readiness" being a skillset resonated deeply with me. It's not just about location; it's about adaptability, cultural awareness, and the ability to thrive in diverse environments. It was nice meeting you Wei Wen Brandon CHUA, Elise Yao Lanjun, Roshan Shanker, and all others 🙏 Looking forward to hearing about you soon! #Networking #SingaporeMentorshipCommittee #SingaporeManagementUniversity #BlockchainTechnology #CryptoIndustry

My dears, I invite you to watch my recent film, "The Case of the Magician of Topoloveni". In this case study, I explore the story of the founder of Sonimpex Topoloveni, who publicly denounced the delisting of the Topoloveni jam by Metro Cash & Carry. What started as a simple misunderstanding between two business partners evolved into a political controversy regarding modifying the legislative framework. The Minister of Agriculture, Florin Barbu, announced that he is working on an ordinance offering preferential treatment to Romanian supermarket products. He also wants to limit the commercial addition practiced by retailers to domestic products, including the addition of Topoloveni jam. In the context of these events, the question is: Did the founder of Sonimpex Topoloveni anticipate the consequences of her public action? Did he do the right thing by bringing the case before politicians and public opinion? I invite you to learn more by watching my video on the YouTube channel! The movie is subtitled in Romanian, English, and Spanish. https://lnkd.in/dXB2XdK5

Recover and valuing information and knowledge: 35 Years of History in Guinea-Bissau On July 1, 2015, when CESO marked 35 years of operations in Guinea-Bissau, we handed over to the Government of this country a collection of 170 documents that integrate more than 30 projects carried out since then; in addition to these, 25 articles from various editions promoted by the company were also included in this collection. The documentation has been delivered to the Government Palace in Bissau, in a ceremony presided over by the then Prime Minister, Engineer Domingos Simões Pereira.   This recovery of information and knowledge results from the Boomerang project, which reflects the company's approach to development consultancy. As the President of the Board of Directors, Professor Américo Ramos dos Santos, mentioned at the time:   “CESO has always been an institution focused on the production and transfer of knowledge. This knowledge is not our property, but of those who honor us with their trust. Our obligation is to preserve and value this knowledge and make it available”.   To learn more about this project, see here the publication where the 35 Years of the History of Guinea-Bissau are presented:   https://lnkd.in/dibuTutv #knowledge #CESO #Guinea-Bissau #intelligence #boomerang #development
