Helping Teams Simplify Technology Risk Management | Implement Cyber Security Fundamentals

🌏 Navigating the New Era of Industrial Policies in Southeast Asia 🌏 As industrial policies, which are strategic government actions to boost industrial growth and economic development, gain prominence globally, ASEAN countries face the challenge of meeting key "invisible" preconditions to leverage these strategies effectively. Marco Kamiya, Carlos López-Gómez, and Mateus Labrunie highlight three crucial factors: Technology Absorptive Capacity: Developing robust skills for operating advanced technologies is crucial. It’s not just about accessing technology but also about adopting it effectively. Enhancing local expertise is key to leveraging industrial advancements and creating jobs. Quality Standards and Infrastructure: Standards might seem invisible, but they are fundamental. From ensuring product quality to meeting international norms, strengthening quality infrastructure is essential. Singapore is leading in this area, showcasing the importance of high standards and effective certification processes. Innovation Ecosystems and Collaboration: Building strong connections with global research centers can bridge the gap in frontier technologies. Southeast Asia must foster collaboration to access cutting-edge knowledge and innovation without bearing excessive costs. In Singapore, we are starting to see the effect of strategic investments in technology and ongoing implementation of new standards, and how this is impacting growth and competitiveness. Improving these “invisible” preconditions will enhance the effectiveness of industrial policies and help Southeast Asian nations adapt to global technological and economic shifts. #SafeSync #RoshiGlobal #Technology #Innovation #IndustrialPolicy #SoutheastAsia #Singapore https://lnkd.in/gT9QY4EB
