     A Dialogue with Prof S Jayakumar, Senior Minister and Coordinating Minister for National Security;

In today’s globalised world, companies are increasingly relying on worldwide linkages and networks in the conduct of daily business operations. Be it in info-communications, or in ensuring the supply of goods and services, any disruptions in connections could cripple operations, resulting not only in inconvenience but in substantial financial losses.

Natural calamities, extreme weather events, major accidents – these are but some factors that could cause serious disruptions to your communications, supply and distribution networks. Coupled with continuing terror attacks in the region, as well as the rising spectre of cyber threats, the importance of supply chain and info-communications/cyber security, as a source of competitive advantage which would bring about strategic value for your business, cannot be over-emphasised.

It is thus evident that mainstreaming security as an integral part of business operations has become crucial in ensuring corporate sustainability. To enhance your organisation’s corporate readiness and resilience, the Singapore Business Federation (SBF) and the National Security Coordination Secretariat (NSCS) have lined up a panel of government, private sector and industry experts, to update you on the latest developments in infocomms and supply chain security, so as to help chart your way forward in fortifying your business operations.

Participants will also benefit from a dialogue session with Guest-of-Honour Prof S Jayakumar, Senior Minister and Coordinating Minister for National Security; Assoc Prof Ho Peng Kee, Senior Minister of State for Law and Home Affairs and Mr Lee Yi Shyan, Minister of State for Trade & Industry and Manpower.
