A Colourful Gathering: Strengthening Industry Partnerships

Collaboration is at the heart of innovation, and A Colourful Gathering, held last Thursday on 20 Feb 2024, showcased the power of strategic industry-academic partnerships in driving progress and sustainable growth. This landmark event provided a platform for industry leaders to engage in meaningful discussions, explore collaboration opportunities, and connect with future talents.

A key highlight of the event was the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signing ceremony, where eleven esteemed companies officially partnered with SEGi. These organisations chose to collaborate with SEGi because of its practical, hands-on approach to assignments, which allows companies to directly engage with students, providing real-world insights and fostering valuable industry connections.
