The Singapore Corporate Awards – co-organised by The Business Times, Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants and Singapore Institute of Directors, continue to set a sterling example for local corporations. The 19th edition of this prestigious event upheld tradition by honouring individuals and companies that have significantly elevated Singapore’s corporate disclosure standards. A total of 36 companies and 6 business leaders were honoured for their outstanding contributions. Among these was the inaugural Distinction in Sustainability Reporting award, which was launched in light of the threat of climate change and sustainable business practices. Congratulations to all the winners for their leadership in the corporate world. #SPHMedia #TheBusinessTimes #SingaporeCorporateAwards

At SPH Media, we strive for excellence in every business partnership. The Business Times Corporate Golf League was no exception, and we couldn't have asked for a better presenting sponsor than Singapore Pools. Held across five courses, the five-leg golf league featured 14 teams from Singapore companies, competing passionately in both the competitive and social categories. Singapore Pools emerged as the champion, with Singapore Global Trust and SPH Media securing second and third place, respectively. Beyond just a recreational event, The Business Times Corporate Golf League provided a fantastic platform to engage additional partners who contributed to off-course activities. A big thank you to everyone for making this event a swinging success. Read more here: https://bit.ly/3MCG8AA #SPHMedia #TheBusinessTimes

As we come face to face with the AI revolution, are we prepared for what lies ahead? As a leading voice in the community, SPH Media tackled this quandary with The Straits Times Education Forum, held earlier this year, in partnership with SMU and in support of SkillsFuture. Starting the event on a high note was Mr. Jeremy Au Yong, Editor of Newsroom Transformation with The Straits Times. He facilitated a live conversation with Sophia, Hanson Robotics’ most advanced human-like robot. The exercise was executed to accomplish two goals: to compare Sophia with other chatbots, and to determine if Sophia’s physical aspects made the interaction feel more or less natural.
