What happens when design policy meets geopolitical strategy?

Yesterday afternoon, the Design Business Chamber Singapore (DBCS) had the distinct privilege of exploring this exact intersection with Senior Minister of State (SMS) in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Home Affairs Sim Ann during our special Circle Connects session: Creative Diplomacy in an Age of Geopolitical Disruption.

You’re Invited! Special DBCS Circle Connects

You’re Invited! Special DBCS Circle Connects! Few people sit at the intersection of design policy and geopolitical strategy. Senior Minister of State Sim Ann is one of them, and she’s opening the room.

As Senior Minister of State (MFA & MHA) and Patron of DBCS since 2018, SMS Sim Ann has been the bridge between Singaporean innovation and global policy. In this special Circle Connects, we’re going behind closed doors to discuss Creative Diplomacy in an Age of Geopolitical Disruption.

DBCS Seed Award Fieldwork

The design industry is changing faster than ever, and the designers who will shape its future are already among us.

The Design Business Chamber Singapore (DBCS) is proud to bring together, for the very first time, alumni of the Seed Award, young designers recognised for embodying the five qualities of future design leaders: Creative Impact, Critical Thinking, Connective Intelligence, Perseverance, and Ethical Decision-Making.
