The “Risk Appetite” of the Corporate Board We live in an era of information abundance but insight scarcity, full of uncertainty, velocity, complexity, and ambiguity.

It reflects the color and shade of your thought patterns, and it indicates the peaks and curves of your thinking waves. Unlike pure entertainment, quality and professional content takes time for digesting, contemplation and engaging, and therefore, it takes time to attract the "hungry minds" and the "deep souls." It’s the journey to amplify diverse voices and deepen digital footprints, and it's the way to harness your innovative spirit.
