Porsche Studio Singapore in Guoco Midtown plays host to the conversations of tomorrow
Electric vehicles (EVs) have been the talk of the town and automotive brands are indeed jumping on the electric bandwagon.
This has become a necessity for the brands today, as Singapore accelerates its Green Plan to completely electrify the vehicle population in the country by 2040.
This talk is indeed still active in town and it was led by carmaker Porsche in its studio in Guoco Midtown.
As part of its Studio activation series, Porsche has used its multi-purpose space on the second floor of its studio to host its first Speaker Series in April, titled Journey to a Cleaner World, in celebration of Earth Day 2024.

The other members of the panel included Kong Man Jing, co-founder of the science and environment-themed YouTube Channel “Just Keep Thinking”, Dean Cher, head of mobility, sustainable energy solutions SP Group; and Dr. Tan Wei Ming, owner of a Porsche Taycan.
The conversation centred around the need for better charging infrastructure, affordable and accessible charging points, as well as incentives to encourage more people to switch to EVs.
The speakers also discussed the importance of using social media to raise awareness about sustainable living practices and the challenges of having conversations about sustainability without being preachy or alienating others.
Additionally, the role of educational directors (EDs) in Singapore's education system was discussed, with speakers emphasising the importance of individual actions in addressing climate change and adjusting to change.
Porsche is making the effort to demystify challenges and issues that potential EV owners may have about owning an EV. Its studio space will be used to further host such events to bring people together and have discussions on the theme of the event.
