COMPANIES need to align their priorities with one or more of the mega trends created by or intensified by the pandemic, said Minister for Trade and Industry Chan Chun Sing, stressing that this pivot is one that both small and large companies must take in order to succeed in a changed economy.
Mr Chan was speaking at a virtual press conference following a visit to Keppel Corporation on Tuesday where he highlighted the latter as an example of a firm that has used the capabilities they have developed over the years to pivot to new areas.
