Happy New Year all!!
It’s been 2 grueling years of finding qualified team members, training, struggling, and entering many big battles. With it, we have also experienced several great victories. Entering this third year, will our days be a mere continuation of what has passed?

Many have stated that the first three years are the most crucial stage. It is the trial phase for a company to prove themselves, whether their concept can really be executed and such. Like in motion pictures, the third installment in a trilogy is the climax; the peak of what has been weaved in the episodes before.

So what action will we take in this coming third year to path our ways to the years ahead?

The answer lies in these two elements:

1. Healthy Year

Going back to our vision in OCTOVATE Group, we strive to make this company the most passionate and healthiest place. We truly hope that this will not be just a vision, a formality for the company, but will become something that OCTOVATE family truly embodies.

Let’s take a moment to think about the word HEALTH and PASSION.

Work and career are two significant life components. Those are the vehicles that enable us to pursue our goals in life. In that case, if the environment in which we work is not healthy and passionate enough, what effects will it has on our own physical and mental wellbeing?

If in these past two years we’ve experienced the importance of passion, this next year will be the time we all start to focus ourselves to pay more attention to our health; not just the physical aspect of health, but health in a broader perspective. Take baby steps by entering the year with passion to work, creating a fun working surrounding, being selective in choosing our battles, and in the end enjoying a healthy reward financially as well.

Being healthy is much easier said than done. It takes high level of commitment and discipline. There need to be a lot of improvement in system, from the project management side, human resource, and off course the finance side.

2. New Creative Business Galaxy

While in the micro plan, we’ve established 2008 as the year to be healthy, in the macro plan; we are aiming to strengthen OCTOVATE’s position as a major player in the creative industry group by continuously developing our business while staying true to our vision.

There will be several new innovations on our behalf, such as mobile division, music label, film investment & production, Internet, and many more new businesses that we feel is still staying true to our creative and commercial goal.

In conclusion, the two points above will most likely be our focus in the year 2008. No doubt, with our passion for knowledge, innovation, and achievement, we will blaze through this prospective New Year.

Without further a do, I would like to say Good Luck Octokers. God bless you all!!
