Members’ New Year Networking Night
On 18 January 2024, IIA Singapore hosted a New Year Networking Night at its Telok Ayer Street office, bringing together a group of over 45 members, including its board members.
Stephen Ching, President of the Board of Governors of IIA Singapore, took the opportunity to share the Institute's support for members in elevating their impact as internal auditors. Emphasising the importance of early adoption, he also shed light on the newly released Global Internal Audit Standards. These Standards are poised to shape the future of the internal audit professional practice, providing a robust foundation for evaluating and elevating the quality of the internal audit function.
The event's guest speaker, Alvin Liew, Senior Economist from UOB's Global Economics & Markets Research team, delivered an insightful presentation on macroeconomic trends and developments in Singapore and the Asia Pacific region. A highlight of the evening was the engaging speed networking game, where members not only made new connections but also rekindled old acquaintances. The game saw three lucky winners walking away with vouchers for completing the activity in the fastest time. The event provided a mix of networking opportunities, accompanied by drinks, a delectable cheese platter, and sumptuous local cuisine. The turnout and enthusiastic participation made the New Year Networking Night a resounding success.
