    “Business Networking Lunch Series”

    There is no time for lunch during a crisis, so before one hits your organisation grab a quick bite and learn a few things about what you should be doing.
    Imagine waking up this morning, there is 10 missed calls on your phone and countless SMS’s and WhatsApps from your boss and members of the media asking about the crisis that just hit your organisation, What will you do? how well have your prepared and what tools do you have in place to help you manage the next 12 to 24 hours?  Do you need help managing the next 7 to 14 days?
    In the Malaysian context crisis communication and indeed crisis management is still relatively misunderstood but time and time again we find ourselves in conversations like “why didn’t they handle that better?”
    We would like to take this opportunity to invite you to join us for lunch as we dig into the issues that are affecting corporations and their leaders in the modern age of communications. When things go wrong what is your strategy and do you have a plan to deal with a sudden need for “Crisis Communications”.
     
    The lunch will have several speakers who will share their views on the challenges and solutions affecting corporations in Malaysia. The lunch setting will also allow you to network with industry professionals and share ideas on the future of business in Malaysia.

    During the World Food Summit which was held in 1996 food security was defined as existing “when all people, at all times, have physical and economic access to sufficient, safe, nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life” The manner in which the global food giants think about and manage food production and distribution is not only affecting what we eat but how countries, corporations and entrepreneurs can profitably invest into food production. This will form the basis of discussions during the morning sessions, key questions will be:

    • What is the Changing Dynamic of the Global Supply Chain and how does it effect how we invest into food production?
    • Are governments investing enough in the right places to ensure food security and a sustainable future?
    • What Strategies can investors and businesses use to benefit from the current scenario?
    • Food Security in the Muslim World: The Global Halal Supply Chain – How is Malaysia and other ASEAN counties positioned to take advantage?
    • How will new technology & innovation play a role in drought/flood management and how will this effect food production?
    • What is the entire value chain and what amounts of investments are needed from seed to retail and innovation to marketing?
    • What does the change in the value of the Malaysian Ringgit mean for investors in this sector?
