Connecting Singaporean youths to their cultural roots and heritage (a business transformation and strategic branding project for a Chinese Opera Company)“薪火相传 A single spark can start a fire🔥” - Cai Bi Xia, Founder, Traditional Arts Company (TAC)At Ideactio, we joined forces with TAC to bridge the gap between Singaporean youth and theircultural roots through Chinese Opera. To start off, we have asked ourselves:- How can Chinese Opera create the crucial bridge between Singaporean youth and culture?- What role TAC can play in this?Challenge Identified:- Young Singaporeans are disconnected with their cultural roots. - Hyper urbanised environment of Singapore doesn't allow time or space for youth to discover and connect with their cultural roots, thus leading to the potential loss of traditions in hyper urban Singapore and a decline in interest in appreciation for rich historical heritage. - Fading charm of Chinese Opera in Singapore - A gap between youth and Chinese Opera such as inaccessibility to information, language barrier, out-of-day style and relatable content. What Ideactio did:Sense-making: A thorough analysis to understand needs and gaps of youth (the potential audience), informing a strategic change in TAC’s engagement approach.Refreshed identity: Crafting a refreshed identity for TAC and its offering that communicates the essence of Chinese Opera effectively.New product / services: New product and services that connect well with the target audienceAudience engagement strategy: Developed a detailed engagement strategy and a comprehensive brand marketing handbook tailored for TAC's community.At Ideactio we love to work with truly ‘purpose-driven’ organisations like TAC, and passionate founders like Ms. Cai Bi Xia. While living it hyper-urban cities it is even more important not to loose connection with our cultural roots, heritage and history. Where we come from (our history and culture), anchors our journey to where we are going!#ChineseOpera #CulturalHeritage #ArtsEducation #CommunityEngagement #PreservationEfforts #TraditionalArtsCentrePS:Ideactio’s work with Traditional Arts Company (TAC) over a period of three months was made possible through Sector Transformation Grant (STF) by National Arts Council (NAC) #NAC to set TAC on its path to a renewed journey.

#CoolSingapore A bit hard for hot and humid Singapore to be cool but surely we can be red hot! ☄️The comment in the article below on Singapore’s lacklustre capital markets is accurate though. Many investor clients lament the lack of exit opportunities through the local bourse being an impediment to longer term plans when looking at Singapore as an investment location. Is Singapore cool or hot, you think? “Market observers will say Hong Kong, no matter what, has a very deep capital market that Singapore struggles to rival.A Bloomberg Intelligence (BI) report dated Feb 21 stated that Hong Kong will continue capturing more capital markets business and equity trading volume than Singapore for the foreseeable future.Even China’s giants are picking S'pore over Hong Kong for regional HQsS’pore replaces HK as ‘world’s freest economy’It said Hong Kong’s listings by deal value may have fallen to US$5.9 billion (S$7.94 billion) in 2023 from US$13.4 billion in 2022, but it is still way more than Singapore’s US$32.5 million.But in the same report, it is clear that Singapore has made headway in a number of other categories.BI stated that Singapore would continue to attract more global business flows than Hong Kong in the coming five years at least.”

Happy Holi! As we celebrate Holi, the festival of colors, let's reflect on its deeper meaning and how it translates to our professional lives.Holi symbolizes burning the past year's negativity, just like the Holika bonfire. In the spirit of self-improvement, we can use this as a metaphor to shed old habits, limiting beliefs, and unproductive patterns that hold us back.Just as colors are thrown freely during Holi, let's embrace the vibrant spirit of continuous learning and growth. Here's how the festival inspires our professional journeys:1. Letting Go: Like the burning of Holika, we can release outdated skills and actively seek new knowledge to stay relevant.2. Teamwork: Holi is best enjoyed with loved ones. Similarly, professional success often hinges on collaboration and building strong networks.3. Openness: The vibrant colors of Holi represent embracing diversity. Let's cultivate an inclusive mindset and learn from different perspectives.Remember, self-improvement is a joyful journey, just like Holi! Let's celebrate our successes, big and small, and keep striving to be the best version of ourselves.Wishing you a Happy and Colorful Holi!#holi #festivalofcolors #selfimprovement #growthmindset #professionaldevelopment #ruralsportsdevelopment

Wu-Tang Clan album, Once Upon a Time in Shaolin, is on my radar of interest for several reasons; firstly, because I'm a fan of hip hop and old school kung fu flicks, but equally interesting is the socialising aspect of shared experiences that this is generating. This digital CD, designed to be unavailable for commercial reproduction,downloading or streaming, is now bringing people together for a listen in an art gallery exhibition; my personal opinion is this should go on tour around the galleries of the world to encourage more of the youth to attend art exhibitions, in the spirit and words of Ol' Dirty Bastard "Wu-Tang is for the children."Let's unite to appreciate this living art piece, and support hip-hop culture in our establishments, and hold to the same regard as other art forms.Image source from Mona - Museum of Old and New Art
