CWT Summit 2024

On 19 January 2024, our parent company, CWT, held its inaugural CWT Summit at the Andaz Hotel in Singapore. The summit provided a constructive platform for the management team members from around the world to delve into the various businesses under the CWT Group, explore synergies for growth, and engage in insightful discussions.

The full-day conference kicked off with an inspiring speech from CWT Group Chairman Michael Wang and witnessed active participation as attendees connected with one another, making the most out of the collaborative experience.

It was a memorable night filled with entertainment, fun and laughter, and everyone had an enjoyable time.
