Our inaugural Impact Highlights traces how we came to be and spotlights the work we do as an ecosystem for good. At the heart of this journey are our 4P strategic priorities — Planet, People, Peace, and Progress — underpinned by Partnerships, which guide our collective efforts to deliver impact.
Aligned with Temasek’s community objectives of Connecting People, Uplifting Communities, Protecting our Planet, and Advancing Capabilities, the 4Ps provide a framework for our efforts to catalyse innovation with partners across the public and private sectors.
This publication brings our mission to life — showcasing real-world examples where transformative ideas have been piloted, proven, and mainstreamed across the 4Ps.
