Never has it been so hard to figure out what’s good for you. 10,000 steps a day or 7,000? More red meat or less? To use painkillers or not to use painkillers?



Increasingly it seems that medical advice is being issued based more on feelings and political ideology than scientific fact. In the  second part of their Tech in ‘26 series, Matt and Rich examine some of the headline treatments and advances we’re likely to see this year.



From new blood tests for dementia and associated brain shuttle treatments that can break the brain-blood barrier, to the expansion of GLP-1 and similar obesity treatments. Plus the future of primary care, with telemedicine going mainstream, and the role of AI in just about every part of medical research and diagnostics.

How does the Internet work? To be honest we don't know either. But on Tech Talk, we deconstruct the relationship between humans and technology and understand how it shapes our business and life.

Quantum computing is advancing faster than many realise, and when it does, it could break the encryption that protects banking systems, payment infrastructure, and government data.



In this episode of Tech Talk, we speak with Wo Swee Teck, Managing Director at Securemetric Technology, about why Post-Quantum Cryptography is no longer theoretical, and what the real risks are of delaying preparation.



We explore Malaysia’s readiness following guidance from NACSA, how banks and government agencies are approaching crypto-agility, and what organisations often underestimate about cryptographic migration. From legacy systems to long-term trust, this conversation looks at the operational, economic, and national implications of the quantum era.

The Cost of Quantum Risk: Why PQC Matters to the Future of Money

2026. Will it be the year that a robot butler finally delivers crisps to Matt on a silver platter? That nuclear fusion goes mainstream and everyone owns their own star generating tokamak? Maybe a way to send actual viruses to digital scammers.



Or will it be more rent to own subscriptions, low earth orbit collisions, private space travel and incomprehensible fridges. In the first part of a series on technologies in ‘26, Rich and Matt take a look at consumer tech, imagine what IRL AI looks like, advances in energy production. And those all-important billionaire bolt holes in space.

In this episode of Tech Talk, we explore how 5G, AI, and mixed reality are reshaping the future of healthcare delivery. Following among the world’s first multi-country live surgery conducted by Universiti Malaya Medical Centre and CelcomDigi, we look at how holomedicine is enabling real time surgical mentoring, immersive medical training, and cross border collaboration.



T. Kugan, Chief Innovation Officer at CelcomDigi, and Professor Dr Adina Abdullah, Head of Digital Health Unit at Universiti Malaya Medical Centre, share how ultra low latency 5G and holographic visualisation are moving from pilot projects into real clinical environments. We discuss what this means for access to specialist care, surgical education, and Malaysia’s ambitions as a regional healthcare and medical training hub.
