About the Keynote Speaker

He then decided to venture into his dream job in the advertising industry working in two renowned agencies, namely Bates Malaysia and Lim Kok Wing Integrated. After some years, he decided to move into something different. Zachary found new passion and drive in the world of education in Stamford College and at present in Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman as an Assistant Professor. His concept to education and life-long- learning is to make knowledge, user friendly, applicable and result focused.

About the Theme

Inclusive imagination expands our potential to integrate diverse forms of knowledge in pursuit of a sustainable future. Creativity flourishes when many voices are welcomed, especially those historically marginalized or silenced . By including multiple cultural perspectives and lived experiences, the world of imagination becomes a shared resource rather than an exclusive privilege, enabling communities to envision futures that reflect their collective values and aspirations. Such an inclusive ecosystem  strengthens the legitimacy and impact of sustainable solutions.
