The unique selling preposition (USP) of TLP is that the wills are written by lawyers, and not just some professional will writers.

In this model, the lawyer only needs to meet you once to explain the will and execute it (witness you signing the will).

The Evolving Role of The CIO
2022-08-29 18:30 - 21:00 | 3 Temasek Blvd, #02 - 401 Singapore, 038983, Singapore
Dear ITMA Members,
William R. Synott coined the term “Chief Information Officer”, in his book “Information Resource Management” in 1981, in which he described the CIO as the “senior executive responsible for establishing corporate information policy, standards, and management control over all corporate information resources.” The term did not really catch on until the 1990s, when more and more IT managers were transformed into CIOs. Over the course of 30 years, the basic roles of the CIO have not changed much, but a lot of new responsibilities were added along the way. This talk examines what organizations expected of the CIO over the last 30 years and what do they expect of the CIO in the future. Will the role eventually disappear, or will there be additional C-level IT roles created to maintain an organization’s digital edge?

As the global urban population rises, there is an increasing need for cities to be resilient, sustainable, and responsive to the evolving needs of communities.

However, many are not scaling their innovation and digital transformation as rapidly to realise the value of their investments.
Join us for the 36th CIO Workshop where we will explore how organisations can use the latest technologies such as digital twins and generative artificial intelligence to reinvent themselves to not only push the performance frontiers of their industry, but also shape smart, sustainable, and connected cities of tomorrow.

Steven Millers Dialogue Session
2023-07-17 18:30 - 21:00 | Red Hat, 88 Market Street Level 45 CapitaSpring, 048948, Singapore
Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a powerful, widely applicable, and transformative technology, already beginning to revolutionise industries and redefine human interactions. As we navigate this rapidly changing landscape, it becomes essential to understand how we can co-exist harmoniously in this hybridised world of human and machine intelligence, where AI and other dynamic forces are integral parts of our existence and driving new and constantly evolving possibilities and equilibria.
To help ground us in this new reality and navigate forward, Steven Miller, Professor Emeritus of Information Systems at the School of Computing and Information Systems, Singapore Management University (SMU), will lead you through insight-generating interaction based on the following four basic yet essential questions:

What do we even mean by intelligence, human or machine?
How do we deal with the duality that Machine Intelligence is – and will continue to be – far superior to human intelligence in a growing number of ways, yet far inferior in so many other ways?
How do we update our thinking of when and where we apply Machine Intelligence for Automation versus Augmentation?
How do we cope with the inevitable tensions resulting from the fact that AI technologies and capabilities are moving so quickly while the pace at which our own organisations change and adapt is so much slower?

This is the very last chance for you to be part of an in-person dialogue session with Steven, before he departs Singapore and returns to the US. Steven has been a prominent and colourful figure in the Singapore IT community for the past 23 years. He is well-known across industry, government and academia for his prior role as Founding Dean of SMU’s School of Computing and Information Systems, as well as for his expertise in AI applications and impacts, Human-Machine symbiosis and hybrid intelligence, and organizational learning and capability building.
Based on his recent book, Working with AI: Real Stories of Human-Machine Collaboration (co-authored with Tom Davenport), and his many write ups of AI deployments and digital transformation efforts across industry and public sector in Singapore and beyond, Steven will help us to understand how to navigate this new reality of hybridisation and co-existence.
This facilitated discussion will be a great opportunity to gain valuable perspectives and insights from Steven, as well as from your fellow industry leaders.
