“This event is very interesting and I learnt quite a bit here. We received an invitation and decided to head down to check out the exhibition impromptu due to all the content there is here. I look forward to attending next year’s event!”

Hao Weng Cheong, Engineer, M1 Limited (LDC Nintendo Switch Winner)

“I attended this event to see what are the latest happenings in the market, and to explore the exhibition with vendors from all over the world. I got to speak to people who know their products well. Tencent Cloud was interesting - I read that China is very advanced in artificial intelligence and I went to Tencent Cloud’s booth to see this personally. Their facial recognition technology was great, and so was their real-time voice and text translation software. Another product my company has been using is from UpCloud, who’s an exhibitor this year. I recommended this event to them and told them it’s the event that they have to participate in. The conference sessions were informative and applicable to our business. The show gets bigger every year and now it is covering two floors!”

Gim Leong Chin, Engineer, Performance Computing LLP (Postcard Competition iPad Winner)

“I’ve been here year after year, for the past four or five years. I’m happy to be here and every year I will be here more for networking. From an end-user perspective, we are here to learn about new products and offerings. Other than locals, you get to meet people from all around the region.”

VP, Data Centre Services

“I have attended the event since the last couple of years. Here, you will get to see a variety of exhibitors and the combination of shows makes the event more comprehensive because there will always be a crossover of customers and exhibitors. Overall, this makes the event more meaningful. The key is to be exposed and meet more people.”

Paul Lee, Deputy Chairman, Singapore Computer Society

“Valuable insights and really good content. We’re able to find out how others are coping with their various journeys and what they have done so far. I think it’s all about interaction, talking to various people and sharing so it kind of broadens your perspective.”

Lincoln Yap, VP, UOB

“I think the sheer amount of diversity in terms of the companies that can be brought in, the industry exposure [...] makes it a one-stop solution. The event is quite well-known in the Singapore circle. I think many companies and many professionals who are basically working in this area know about it and they definitely listen. The show is enlightening.”

Abhisek Ghosh, Senior Director, Visa Worldwide

“This is a place where you can see all the vendors under one roof. You can see all the vendors and the different solutions so at least they give a different perspective. The advantage of coming here is how it triggers your mind. The kinds of questions asked here won’t happen like when you go for one-on-one discussions. This is where you can see all the players here. There is a value behind it. It’s beautiful and phenomenal!”

I’ve been in Singapore for less than a year and being in the technology field, it is a great opportunity to network and speak to exhibitors and learn a bit more. I’m looking for ideas on how to elevate our business with regards to the cloud and to stay ahead of the game and how to adapt to the changing circumstances by bringing these ideas back to work.
