Center for the Edge
All disruptions emerge from an ‘edge’; from the boundaries of
what is normal or ‘core’ today.
All disruptive innovation starts from an edge – radical technologies, edgy start-ups, innovative business models, alternative culture, and courageous mavericks. Deloitte Center for the Edge Southeast Asia explore these edges, develop frameworks and insights on how these edges will change the world, and partner with leaders to chart pathways into the future. We are a trusted advisor to the next generation of change-makers in understanding and navigating edge topics.
Originating from Silicon Valley, the Center for the Edge now has presence in Asia, Australia and Europe. Center for the Edge Southeast Asia was established in Singapore in 2019 as a gateway to one of the most vibrant regions in the world.
