Work, work, work... Every day we're pre-occupied with work, but TGIF . I hope you have a well-planned weekend (although doing nothing and staying at home is a good choice too).

In this week's issue, we chatted with a handful of our speakers, revealing how they make time to recharge their mind, body and soul amidst their busy schedules - as I'd like to call it 'refill their tanks'. I hope you can get inspired as well.  

When asked what's the most important quality one needs to excel in the tech industry and in their role, our speakers pointed to one quality - CURIOSITY. Having a 'hungry mind' motivates one to always keep looking for the next best thing - be it improving your day-to-day business, or creating a solution to anticipate an emerging market demand.
