The Asia-Pacific (APAC) region faces a remarkable confluence of crises — the post-effects of the pandemic, cost of living crisis, the great resignation, climate crisis, energy shortage — leading to an era of "polycrisis," a highlight of the World Economic Forum (WEF) Annual Meeting 2023 in Davos


To prepare for these interrelated threats, leaders need to invest in solutions that build long-term resilience toward multiple risks, and hence the conception of the theme of SHAPE APAC 2023: "Rebuilding a Resilient Region”
