DARE serves up healthy competition for investment community

KUALA LUMPUR: DataMetrics Research and Information Centre (DARE) recently hosted an inaugural pickleball tournament for Malaysia's investment and capital market community. More than 50 participants and supporters competed in 16 open-gender doubles teams. From various sectors such as investment banking, corporate finance, fund management, law, and sponsorships, GUtC claimed victory with Ivan Lee and Suzanne Ong as champions.

Apex Securities Bhd and Baker Tilly Malaysia placed second and third, respectively. DARE's managing director, Pankaj Kumar, aimed to foster connections among industry professionals in a leisurely setting. He noted the demanding nature of the investment and capital markets, often requiring long hours and high pressure. Pickleball, being accessible, social, and competitive, proved an apt choice to facilitate interaction and relationship-building outside the conventional boardroom or conference room. Sponsors included CTH Unlimited, Dinky, GUtC, Acendus Communications, and Esente Advisory.
