The Harvard Business Conference, held
during the Harvard Project for Asian and International Relations,
brings the world's top executives, researchers and industry experts
together with the best of tomorrow's leaders to explore the future
of business and innovation in the Asia-Pacific context.
Over the years, the event has emerged
as the largest annual Harvard University event in Asia, attracting
distinguished speakers like the Finance Minister of Japan, the Chief
Editor for The Economist, the Prime Minister of Australia and
numerous other luminaries from global CEOs to renowned Business
Professors.
A select pool of youth-leaders are
invited from around the world to attend the conference, recognising
their contributions, intellectual prowess and influences in shaping
the future of Asia's business climate. Invitees would be screened
by Harvard University to ensure that only the best business students
are selected to experience this golden opportunity.
"Much of my accomplishments would
have to go to the lecturers, my comrades in business competitions, my
classmates and the learning environment that I was exposed to during
my studies in AUT," added Michael, proudly citing AUT's
superiority in producing future business leaders and iconic figures
in society.
Michael is particularly interested in
two topics covered during the conference - global corporate
governance in Asia and tapping into Asia's globalised talent pool.
He cited that he wanted to develop his skills outside of marketing,
thus reaching his goal of being an all-rounder business student,
highly skilled in all core business disciplines.
Michael Teoh has been a regular face
around AUT's business competitions, being a two-time SIFE national
champion and Case Competition champion, representing AUT in both of
these overseas competitions. He has represented New Zealand in New
York for the SIFE World Cup in 2007, and he will be repeating that
success by representing the country in Singapore later this year.
"Let this be a Starting Point for AUT
Business students, to realise that their capabilities and dreams can
be realised, when they put their hearts into them. They are at the
right university after-all," smiled Michael, who aspires to be a
notable Alumni of AUT in the future, similar to the New Zealand
business tycoon, Stephen Tindall.
