What's The Future #4 - Herman Singh: Pandonomics

ABOUT

WHAT IS THIS WEBINAR SERIES ALL ABOUT?

Amazon Web Services (AWS), Torque IT, and Suits & Sneakers have partnered together to create a FREE webinar series called "What's The Future".

Thanks to COVID-19, economies around the world have been turned upside down and we wanted to do something to help businesses navigate these uncertain times. With this in mind, we decided to create a five-part webinar series (one episode each week) where we gather five influential speakers to focus on a different theme each week.

OUR FOURTH GUEST IS HERMAN SINGH

Herman is an innovative business thinker and a high impact player having delivered significant business value in the executive roles that he has operated in. He has an unusual mix of Business, Technology, Leadership and Creative skills that positions him uniquely for roles to lead the march to the new Digital Economy.

The title of Herman's webinar is "Pandonomics". Quite simply, this is a discussion that explores the idea of the pandemic being exactly the strategic nudge that the world needed.
