FUTURE OF WORK :
TOWARDS A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE
The lack of appropriate resources and adequate technical expertise , an increasing trend of partnership and collaboration is observed amongst the Small and Medium-Sized Entities ( SMEs ), which resort to relying on each other ’ s strengths for the exchange of ideas and sharing of pain-points .
SMEs , regardless of their size and business nature , need to hop onto the
technological bandwagon and leverage on the collaboration platform to share their problem statements and seek solutions , tapping on the available grants to go digital and source for partners to grow globally .
One way of doing this , and to keep up with the big players in the market , smaller entities may consider collaborating with educational institutions , associations or fintech start-ups to experiment and explore alternatives to automate .
