How to enhance competitiveness of university students in current global situation?

Unarguably, 2020 marked the most challenging year for the world, we learnt to adapt to the new normalcy in the face of the COVID-19. All industries had to transform themselves with the use of the technologies to minimize the impact of isolation and distancing. Education around the world has been deeply affected as most face-to-face classes were suspended. Online teaching and learning have been accelerated and practiced with no notice time. While we are all hoping for the vaccine for the pandemic infection, the world was overshadowed by the global trade competition. The race of technological development has never been so fierce ever.

It is our pleasure to have Mr. Joseph Ngai, the Senior Partner of McKinsey & Company, in our SEED Talk to explain and analyse the global trends, to give us insights and advices to prepare ourselves on enhancing competitiveness.
