Happy to be at the 54th St. Gallen Symposium, joining other esteemed speakers to discuss the topic of “Shifting Global Power”.
This is especially timely, given complex and far-reaching shifts in geopolitics. In such a landscape, small states can play an important role to foster free markets and collaborations to address common societal challenges.
I shared how Singapore seeks to contribute by remaining open, investing in innovation, and building partnerships across borders — grounded in a strong belief in multilateralism and international cooperation.
Small states like Singapore and Switzerland can serve as neutral, trusted nodes. Our work with Swiss and other international partners, such as through the Singapore-ETH Centre and our research collaborations, reflects this spirit.
I also spoke at a special Singapore-themed dinner yesterday, as we mark 25 years of Singapore’s participation at the St. Gallen Symposium.
Thank you to the St. Gallen team and Singapore Economic Development Board - EDB for organising these meaningful engagements, and to all who joined us for the thoughtful conversations.
