Catch Documentary Film Maker Rakesh Rao at the SFF – Global Leaders’ Roundtable by Ecosystm: Global Solutions to Climate Change in Light of the Pandemic.

THE CLIMATE CHALLENGE We are on the brink of Climate Crisis. There are empirical evidences of changing climate across the planet. The worst affected regions that are facing the brunt of climate change are the Cryospheric regions of the world (Arctic, Antarctic and the Himalayas) and also the Oceans. Concerns on climate change and its impact on land, environment and mankind has been growing lately. Scientists today are using the latest technology and braving some of the harshest conditions on this planet only to investigate these effects of changing climate. Conducting any scientific research activities in some of these regions are extremely difficult due to its harsh climatic conditions, undulating and inaccessible terrain, and the remoteness of field sites. The film takes you on a journey documenting these scientists conducting research in the Arctic, Himalayas and the Southern Ocean and them experiencing some life threatening situations, in order to get the scientific data.

The film has won the Best Science Film award at the International Science film festival 2019. To know more about the Science, Expedition and the Film visit:

A recording of the webinar on the 21st October 2020 featuring Ecosystm Principal Advisors Ravi Bhogaraju, Tim Sheedy, Audrey William and Mike Zamora. At Ecosystm, we have developed a new 360° Future of Work practice, based on the changing business environment and what companies need to do to adapt, pivot and thrive.

The 360° Future of Work practice is comprised of four components:

• The Business (organisation)

• The People (employees)

• The Technology (tools)

• The Work Environment (where work is done)

In this session, Ecosystm Principal Analyst Sash Mukherjee is in conversation with Ecosystm Principal Advisor Alan Hesketh. They discuss the impact of COVID-19 on Digital and IT teams; why they should be guided by their organisation’s core goals; and how they should manage their IT costs in the ongoing crisis.

In this session, Ecosystm Principal Analyst, Sash Mukherjee, and Ecosystm CEO, Amit Gupta discuss the foundational shifts in industries due to socio-economical factors that have been simmering for a while and more immediately COVID-19; and the role of technology in planning ahead.

Ecosystm Principal Analyst Sash Mukherjee in conversation with Ecosystm Principal Advisor, Telecommunications & Media, Shamir Amanullah. In this session, they discuss the state of the telecom market in Southeast Asia; and the impact of COVID-19 and the growth of the Digital Economy on the market.

As Ecosystm launches our Future of Work practice, we take a holistic view of what the FoW will look like.

Join Ecosystm Principal Advisors; Tim Sheedy (Technology), Ravi Bhogaraju (People & Organisations), and Mike Zamora (Infrastructure & Offices) in a session hosted by Ecosystm CEO Amit Gupta.

There’s tremendous interest and demand from the agriculture industry worldwide about the opportunity that technology can offer for productivity, profitability and sustainability.

We recap some of the fantastic discussions brought to you by Ecosystm and Singapore FinTech Festival from “Re-Imagine the Digital Economy” sessions at Techweek NZ.

During this discussion, Jannat Maqbool moderates a conversation between Claudia Roessler, Andrew Cooke, Paul Ryan, Peter Wren-Hilton, Bradley Busetto and Amit Gupta.

• Building ecosystems of government, industry and research to create standards and maximise the impact
• Importance of data and technology when it comes to food safety
• Working closely with farms and farmers to generate and supply data to feed into the supply chain
• Challenges around implementing technology on the farm
• How do we tackle the problem of global food wastage

The “Re-imagine the Digital Economy” series at TechweekNZ, and organised by Ecosystm and Singapore FinTech Festival kicked off with the Digital Trade Plenary where our expert line-up of speakers discussed the future of digital trade, its increasing importance for citizens and economies, and what benefits it offers to organisations of all sizes.

We heard from Randeep Sudan, H.E Jo Tyndal, Sopnendu Mohanty, Bradley Busetto and Alana Hudson as they spoke to Amit Gupta about:

Importance of data sharing and more seamless payment processes across economies
Moving from productivity and efficiency towards, resiliency and sustainability
How will digital trade enable and empower SMEs?
How do we amplify the opportunities for digital technologies to help developing economies
An overview of the recently signed Digital Economy Partnership Agreement between Singapore, New Zealand and Chile

At the Green and Sustainable FinTech Leader’s panel during the “Re-Imagine the Digital Economy” series of virtual events at TechWeek NZ, and run by Ecosystm and Singapore FinTech Festival, we heard from six leaders in the field.

We explore:

• What level of awareness do consumers have when it comes to choosing products, services and investments that have a positive impact of climate change or sustainability?

• Green investment vehicles can offer great ROI, so what is preventing them from growing exponentially?

• What can governments and regulators do to require organisations to disclose their environment and sustainability efforts in order for investors to understand how sustainable companies are?
