Insight. Influence. Impact.

🏎️ I had the privilege of attending the Formula 1 Gran Prix with the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team and looking behind the curtains of their operations.  It was like stepping into a parallel universe where innovation, precision, and operational excellence flawlessly merged. Insights from the experience that apply to startups: 👁️🗨️ Attention to Detail: Every little thing matters, from the angle of a camera to the smallest details. 💡 Resourcefulness and Adaptability: F1 teams are resourceful and adaptable with tight budgets. 🤝 Teamwork and Preparation: Collaboration and communication are key to high-performing teams. 📈 Continuous Improvement: F1 teams consistently learn and improve. 📊 Data-Driven Decision-Making: Data and analytics are crucial in decision-making. 💪 Adaptability and Resilience: Adaptability and resilience are essential for success in a constantly changing environment. 💻 Innovation and Operational Excellence: Innovation and operational excellence are two sides of the same coin. 🏎️ The Formula 1 truly inspired me with the power of innovation and execution. #inspiration #execution #teamwork

Why is the #Auto🚗 industry so interested in #eVTOLs?✈️ or #electric #airTaxi It is fascinating to observe how major #automobile manufacturers are collaborating with #startups developing eVTOL (electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing) vehicles. For instance, Toyota Motor Corporation’s partnership with Joby Aviation (USD390 million investment), a company in my opinion with one of the most advanced products in this field. The question could be what are these large manufacturers seeing in this new industry, which of course has a high risk? just look at what has recently happened with Lilium (an amazing startup with a 💡disruptive technology). Below is a list of these alliances🤝: Toyota with Joby Aviation Stellantis with Archer Porsche AG with Eve Air Mobility(Embraer)  Daimler and Geely with Volocopter Hyundai with Supernal Denso with Lilium (despite its recent announcement of bankruptcy) #greenMobility

Great news for petrolheads here: Porsche's planned S$100m experience centre opens in Changi in 2027. But it won't just be a place for driving fun. Porsche APAC CEO Hannes R. told us that the centre will target the region, including transiting tourists from China, Australia and India. It's also open to renting out the venue - track and all - to other car brands. As an experience centre alone, I doubt Porsche could recoup the costs of setting up. But as an aftersales location, lifestyle and event space, it's far more worth the investment. In a historical footnote, petrol heads will be happy that there's finally a facility that caters to dynamic driving in Singapore. Porsche stops short of calling it a racing track, but I guess it'll be a lot more fun than driving around a carpark. Back in 2007, the planned Changi Motorsports Hub would have been the first permanent racing track in Singapore and there was even talks of holding a MotoGP race there. That failed big time. Given Porsche's track record, this project is far less likely to go off piste. #porsche #singapore #stb
