📢 Shaping the Future-Ready Workforce: Highlights from SBF AGM 2025
nSearch Global had the distinct honor of attending the Singapore Business Federation’s (SBF) 23rd Annual General Meeting (AGM) — a landmark gathering of industry leaders, policymakers, and forward-thinking enterprises committed to Singapore’s economic transformation. Held in the heart of the city, the event served as a powerful reminder of the importance of collaboration, innovation, and resilience in building a sustainable and inclusive future.
A Visionary Address from Minister Dr. Tan See Leng
One of the highlights of the AGM was an insightful keynote address delivered by Dr. Tan See Leng, Singapore’s Minister for Manpower and Minister-in-charge of Energy. His speech focused on the nation’s economic outlook, the rapid pace of digitalisation, and the strategic steps needed to future-proof Singapore’s workforce and industries.
Dr. Tan spoke of the critical role that businesses play in leading the charge toward a net-zero, tech-enabled economy, emphasising workforce transformation, sustainable growth, and inclusive progress as cornerstones of Singapore’s development agenda. His address was both inspiring and actionable — reaffirming our belief that human capital and innovation must go hand in hand.
SBF’s New Brand Identity: Mobilising Business, Magnifying Opportunities
The AGM also marked a new chapter for the Singapore Business Federation, as it unveiled its refreshed brand identity:
“Mobilising Business, Magnifying Opportunities.”
This new identity reflects SBF’s role as more than just a business association — it is now a dynamic force that unites enterprises to tackle global challenges, unlock new opportunities, and lead transformative change across sectors.
For nSearch Global, the new vision aligns deeply with our own values. As a company built on bridging the gap between tech talent and business innovation, we are excited to support this movement — both in Singapore and across the broader region.
A Seat at the Table: nSearch Global Among 180 Invited Partners
We are proud to have been one of 180 invited partner companies at the event, a strong signal of our growing relevance and contribution to the Singapore business ecosystem. It was a moment of validation — not just of our past achievements, but of the road ahead.
From AI-powered recruitment to cross-border contractor payroll via stablecoins, nSearch Global is on a mission to help organisations scale smarter, hire faster, and stay future-ready.
As we listened to the conversations and connected with fellow leaders at the AGM, one thing became clear: transformation cannot happen in silos. It takes ecosystems — and we’re honored to be part of one that is purpose-driven and forward-thinking.
Our Commitment to a Future-Ready Workforce

-
AI-driven HR technology
-
Digital talent platforms
-
Sustainable contractor management
-
Scalable outsourcing solutions for high-growth industries
Being present at the SBF AGM reminded us of our responsibility — and opportunity — to build not just tools or services, but lasting impact. Whether it’s helping a fintech firm find its next DevOps engineer or enabling a government agency to manage project-based talent compliantly, our work is always rooted in enabling people to thrive.
