27th January 2021, Kuala Lumpur - Whether we have noticed or not, there are persisting forces shaping the world around us. These megatrends enable us to consider our world 5 to 10 years – or more – into the future to help us make more-informed decisions now. Although events like the COVID-19 pandemic will cause short-term headwinds to some key trends, and tailwinds to others, these megatrends are expected to persist into the future.
For a fast moving economy like Malaysia, with a projected GDP of 3.4 trillion by 2030, as part of the Shared Prosperity Vision 2030, keeping an eye on these trends will enable businesses to better shape their transformation strategies. “The pandemic is further proof of Malaysia’s quick adaption to technology, as we quickly adapted new technologies in healthcare, education, and other sectors to respond to the crisis. As we continue our journey toward further economic growth, the trends that we have observed now will play a major role in how businesses transform over the decade,” says GT Lim, Country Leader of 3M Malaysia.
