As the world emerges from the shadows of a pandemic, we're all wondering what's next? Has our experience in lockdown altered the future we expected or has it simply accelerated ongoing change?
What's in store for us over the next few years? Join Singapore-based hosts Suzy Goulding and Andrew Clark as they ask leaders across Asia working in media, marketing, communications and lifestyle one simple question: What's next?
On this edition of the podcast we chat to Paul Harris, Asia Pacific Director for Rolls-Royce Motorcars about his passion for automobiles from a young age, the importance of personalisation for luxury brands and the possibility of a fully electric Rolls Royce in the not too distant future. Unfortunately he wouldn’t spill all the beans on some of the interesting and often bizarre customisation requests the company gets from its well-heeled clientele - much to mine and Andrew’s disappointment!
