Malaysia is targeting a $100 billion investment for its semiconductor industry, as the country looks to boost its position as a global supply chain leader. GLG Malaysia wanted to know more. At this exclusive event, Atul Shah, a distinguished semiconductor expert in GLG’s network, joined Fergus Clarke, APAC Head of Surveys, for a discussion behind our recent report on the outlook and opportunities for the industry. Andrew Chan Yik Hong, Director of MSIA, welcomed attendees and Karen Soh, Head of Malaysia at GLG, moderated the panel. As Malaysia continues to position itself as a key player in the global semiconductor sector, GLG is proud to support our clients with unparalleled insights, helping them navigate this transformative era with confidence. Personally, it was great to be back in Malaysia with our team, which has grown 5X in less than a year. Thank you to everyone for joining, including representatives from the Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI). A big call out to the Malaysia Semiconductor Industry Association for their ongoing support.

GLG opened its doors in New York City back in 1998. More than 25 years later, we’re a global company with people, clients, and experts around the world. And we’re still proud to call the city home.   It was a pleasure to join the Partnership for New York City this week to discuss why we’ve continued to grow our business here.    Thank you to Crain's New York Business for hosting and sponsoring, Kathy Wylde for the invite, Anne Michaud for moderating, and my co-panelists Sean Decatur and Anthony Pompliano for sharing their own New York stories.

Great start to November delivering the keynote at INSEAD's PE and VC conference in Singapore. Thank you to INSEAD for hosting such a great event now in it's 16th year. As an alumni, it was an honor to address the next generation of graduates of the EMBA programme. It was also such a privilege to host GLG clients for a discussion on the shifting dynamics in the semiconductor industry last week, alongside Atul Shah. GLG Head of Surveys Fergus Clarke was joined by Jessie Yang for a discussion on the outlook and impact of this emerging technology across various sectors and the role that SEA plays in manufacturing, assembly, and distribution. Keep an eye out for upcoming events across our offices in APAC.

We have major gaps in our knowledge and understanding.   Leaders are hesitant to admit this when it comes to AI, wasting time and valuable resources. Of the 200 decision makers GLG recently surveyed, more than half (59%) couldn’t define generative AI.   The problem is everywhere, and the level of uncertainty is exhausting. But do you really need a Chief AI Officer?   Probably not.   It’s unreasonsonable to expect any one person can weigh in on every application, opportunity, and technology that emerges. Hiring a team of specialists is out of reach for most organizations.   The smartest AI leaders don’t work at your company. Some do, however, work with us at GLG.   Our network is the most diverse, dynamic, and senior membership of its kind. Don’t be caught flat-footed, scrambling to keep up. Hear directly from GLG experts on how to transform AI into real-world value for your business.

Join us in celebrating the one hundred GLGers who completed GLG's Front-Line Leadership Program! 🎓👏 Our global, two-month course covers key leadership topics and training, including team management, relationship building, and talent development. Working in small groups, managers across the business gained confidence learning from colleagues in different functions about setting goals, structuring their days, giving feedback, and communication. “We all have so much in common,” one graduate told us. “It’s helpful to learn from managers in similar situations.” Congratulations to our graduates! 🙌 🎉 #LifeatGLG
