After many years’ privilege of showcasing Singapore Management University’s stellar research and academic thought leadership, it is time for Perspectives@SMU to close the chapter that began as Knowledge@SMU in 2005. As the university evolves, our communication channels and objectives evolve as well, and we believe that our alternative refreshed channels will help us to highlight SMU’s exciting work and ambition more effectively. From 1 October 2022, Perspectives@SMU will cease producing new content. In its place, City Perspectives will highlight the three strategic priorities of Digital Transformation, Growth In Asia, and Sustainable Living as the University commits to delivering on SMU Vision 2025. We look forward to seeing you at City Perspectives.
