AI, Edge & Enterprise: Powering the next wave of revenue and relevance for connectivity providers
To remain commercially relevant and competitively differentiated, Asia’s connectivity industry must go beyond bandwidth and become the foundational layer powering AI-driven transformation in enterprises and government.
From smart cities to AI-assisted manufacturing and connected healthcare, public and private sector demand for low-latency, intelligent services is rising fast. Meeting that demand requires the combined muscle of telcos, hyperscalers, and data centre operators—working together to localise compute, distribute AI workloads, and enable vertical-specific innovation.
-
AI at the edge, enabled by infrastructure: How are telcos, hyperscalers, and data centres collaborating to deliver real-world edge use cases—like smart traffic systems, predictive industrial maintenance, and AI-enhanced logistics?
-
Next-gen digital infrastructure roles: How are InfraCos moving up the stack as neutral hosts or edge compute enablers, and how are data centres adapting to support dense, AI-ready workloads?
-
Evolving business models: How are telcos, Infracos, and DC operators reshaping their commercial strategies to align with hyperscalers, vertical platforms, and national digital agendas?
-
Strategic right to play: As the demand for sovereign AI and regulated cloud increases, what role can regional infrastructure players take in enabling secure, compliant, scalable services?
