Think Big Singapore Empowers Businesses to Navigate Uncertainty Amid Cloudy Economic Forecast
Annual leadership business series by Canon Singapore equips business leaders with strategies and a resilience-ready toolkit to navigate global and economic shifts impacting Singapore
SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 6 October 2025 – Canon today announced the return of the highly-anticipated annual Think Big Leadership Business Series in Singapore, designed to help businesses tackle challenges in an era of global uncertainty and technological disruption. This year’s event, themed “Sailing Through a Sea of Uncertainty: Building a Resilience-Ready Toolkit to Thrive in an Unpredictable Future”, provides a strategic forum for business leaders to discuss geopolitical uncertainties, and how Singapore is poised to become the regional powerhouse by embracing artificial intelligence (AI) and innovation.
The series is particularly timely, as the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI) recently shared a cloudy economic outlook for the rest of 2025 amidst trade conflict and financial or geopolitical shocks. This makes the need for businesses to adopt strategies that strengthen adaptability and future-readiness more urgent than ever.
Co-organised by Canon Singapore and Mediacorp, the Think Big series will take place at the Parkroyal Collection Marina Bay on 22 and 23 October 2025. Over the two days, distinguished industry leaders and eminent representatives from key trade associations including the Singapore Business Federation, AI Singapore, Association of Small & Medium Enterprises (ASME), and National University of Singapore, will convene to deliberate on pivotal themes, including macro and economic repercussions of trade wars and tariffs, and the transformative integration of AI.
The popular Mandarin-language seminar also returns this year, featuring industry experts and academia who will explore how businesses can navigate today’s volatile economic climate. There will also be a focused session on the Singapore-Malaysia Special Economic Zone (SEZ), spotlighting opportunities for growth, cross-border investment, and collaborative innovation in this fast-developing economic corridor.
“2025 has been marked by unprecedented global uncertainty and rapid technological advancement, making resilience more crucial than ever for businesses across Asia,” said Norihiro (Nick) Katagiri, Senior Vice President, Regional Digital Printing and Business Solution Operations, Canon Singapore.
“Canon’s Think Big Leadership Business Series serves as a cornerstone event for thought-provoking discussions, practical business insights, and innovative showcases. With a diverse lineup of speakers and a focus on actionable solutions, we believe that this event will equip business leaders with the insights and tools needed to navigate the complexities of 2025 and emerge stronger for the future of work.”
Strategic Forum for a Future-Ready Singapore
Building on the 2025 National Day Rally‘s message of a strong focus on innovation and technology, Think Big 2025 will address how new technologies can be quickly adopted across the entire economy to sustainably raise productivity while mitigating risks in an uncertain business environment. This aligns with the national goal of empowering every organisation to effectively adopt AI and other key technologies to strengthen their competitiveness.
Exclusive to the event will be Canon’s solutions showcase, where attendees will be able to walk through a one-of-a-kind ‘AI City’ designed to provide businesses with practical solutions to navigate an evolving business landscape. This immersive experience will feature a replica city with different zones representing key work styles and business environments.
