The World After the Pandemic.

In light of preparing ourselves to go back to normality that is very much in sight, there’s a widening gap of understanding between what technology does for the world and what it does to the world. There’s also a gap between how humans understand and frame these differences. What is inevitable is that digital has proven it only brings advantages and efficiency in streamlining organisations, big and small, and making them more fit for the future. Digitalization is believed as the wise initiative to move forward to digital business and digital transformation as well as the creation of new revenue streams and offerings. The glue and core asset of digital transformation is allegedly smart data and intuitive processes, that leads to new knowledge, intelligence, action and business model changes. 

With the acceleration of AI-based digitalisation, there is an emergence of Artificial Cognition, or when a system acquires vast amount of real-world knowledge. Most humans could accomplish this objective in twenty years, a versatile Intelligent Collective Learning System (ICLS) can do it much faster. In light of common anatomical and social points of reference, ICLS empowers a machine to get familiar with the proper guidelines through experimentation associated with the real world. Games and trial-and-error techniques are used to demonstrate the cycles of the world. Considering the lightning-speed brain processes of an Intelligent system, experts and observers alike should start “feed” it more with true events and objective information that will eventually influence to create the kind of world that we want. Good machine-learning scientists know that “raising” an ICLS in order to unleash its true potential, is similar to nurturing a ten-year-old genius prodigy with its traits of critical thinking, intellectual curiosity, independence in attitude, diversity of interests, and intact sense of right and wrong. The question is, what kind of world do we want to create ?

Now the world is getting ready to open up for a new – post-Covid – cycle, leaders need to gather the lessons learned and exchange information of initiatives that worked, the acceleration level of digitalisation, and what the challenges were in responding and overcoming the pandemic. We will be ready next time, but can we shorten the span of time from one year to one month, and significantly reduce the number of three million casualties, if the world act together as one ? The world revolves, space exploration continues, a commercial journey to Mars is getting more feasible, and the frontier expands. Humans have the ability in fluidity of mind and think as well as act collectively. Let’s give an example to the ICLS that we stand together in adversity, and whatever we do and decide, it is for the benefits of creating a progressive, resilient and future-proof world.

New clothing line Wimbledon

Spectators unsure about what to wear for this year’s Championships can enjoy the club’s new range, made yards from Centre Court

Wimbledon has launched its first range of “smart casual” clothes for spectators as it revealed many visitors are unsure what to wear to the Championships.

The All England Lawn Tennis Club said that the new “semi-formal” range, designed just yards from Centre Court, would allow all guests to wear something “from Wimbledon to Wimbledon” and “stylish options to wear, to watch, as well as play, tennis”.

The range for men and women includes cotton chino trousers and shorts, Oxford shirts, knitwear and striped dresses, with prices starting at £40 and going all the way up to £250.

The club has also commissioned “Varsity-style pieces” which it said reflects “the preppy, collegiate style which has infiltrated wardrobes across the globe in the last year”.

New seasonal pieces for this year include the W Varsity Bomber, a limited edition, traditional varsity jacket made from hardwearing Melton wool, featuring an embroidered felted W patch.

The small team of designers includes some who have previously worked for classic British brands and who have worked on a broad range of styles including “tenniscore”, an emerging fashion based on the sport.

There is no official dress code for most visitors to Wimbledon, but management at SW19 found that there was confusion about what to wear to the Championships, which will run between July 3 and 16.

According to the club, in the three weeks leading up to the tournament, there was a 404 per cent spike in online searches on what to wear to the event compared to earlier in the year.

The new collection has been more than two years in the making and the club said the designs would have a “subtle nod to Wimbledon throughout the collection”.

David Hewitt, the head of retail and merchandise at Wimbledon, said that the club was “continually looking to push the boundaries” and move beyond sportswear.

He said: “Our semi-formal capsule is exciting new territory for us. The team has designed some really attractive pieces, inviting our guests to wear something from Wimbledon to Wimbledon for the first time – for me, that’s something really special.”

Mr Hewitt said that “tennis has always been connected to fashion” and the team did sometimes take inspiration from stars of the game “both old and new”.

“What is wonderful about the sport is the almost unconscious blending between competitor and spectator,” he said.

“Every year, we watch and admire amazing fashion takes across both our grounds and on our courts. We are genuinely inspired by that combined look and feel and I hope the new additions reflect all of our experiences as much off court as on.”

The club’s purple and green towels and caps have become iconic, and Mr Hewitt said he hoped that the new range would become one of the styles of the summer.

“I like to think some of the items from this year’s semi-formal range will become staples for other smart-casual occasions throughout summer too,” he said.

“The branding is subtle and modern, simply featuring an embroidered tennis ball, so they’re certainly not Wimbledon-specific.”

Looking ace still the priority
He added that he hoped the new collection would encourage those watching the world’s most famous lawn tennis championship to dress smartly.

“Unless you’re lucky enough to be in the Royal Box, or actually walking out to compete on one of our courts, there is no official dress code for Wimbledon,” said Mr Hewitt.

“But we are happy to encourage dressing smartly hence the new, semi-formal pieces for 2023. We’ve started it modestly, with just a handful of styles, but we will definitely be expanding for 2024 which, of course, is already well under way.”
