What’s our Cloud event all about?

Asia boasts some of the world’s most advanced markets in Cloud adoption among enterprises and governments, and pioneering telcos offering Cloud services. Asian business leaders frequently emphasize the importance of Cloud in driving innovation, cutting costs and boosting productivity.

That said, according to the Asia Cloud Computing association, issues such as reliability of access, security, government access, privacy and intellectual property protection still constrain the adoption of cloud services. Cloud providers and customers have also expressed concerns about data portability, vendor lock-in and interoperability.

There is one place to get the answers to all your Cloud-related questions: the Cloud World Forum Asia. The region’s leading & most established Cloud event delivered an outstanding 65% growth last year, gathering 400+ delegates and more than 60 Cloud expert speakers.

It’s the only Cloud event in the region focusing on both the enterprise and telco Cloud segments in dedicated streams. World class enterprise & government organisation IT experts dominate the Enterprise agenda in driving innovation, cutting costs and boosting productivity. They are joined by the movers & shakers of Cloud strategy among Asian telecom operators proving why telcos are indeed best positioned in the Cloud Ecosystem.

From Google and Amazon to Greenpeace and the National Governments, the entire ecosystem of Cloud Computing will again be joining us in 2013, securing every angle of the evolving world of the Cloud.

FRESH FOR 2013!

Trending Cloud Topics covered at the event in 2013 include Open Stack, Software Defined Networking & NFV, Virtualisation, Analytics, CRM, CEM, Ethernet-powered Cloud and Cloud gaming.

In 2013, we are launching a dedicated co-located session on Big Data! Our Big Data Congress Asia will help you learn how to make the most of this infinite resource, and explore synergies with Cloud.

Hands-On Labs & Workshops will now also be integrated in the main agenda ensuring unparalleled levels of interactivity and rich learning experiences from the region’s leading solution providers.

Our VIP Speed Networking & meet/greet campaign facilitated by our Cloud World Series Head of VIP Relations, guarantees meetings with the industry’s leaders in a boutique, informal environment.

All in all, this the only event an IT professional needs to attend year on year to keep up to date on what’s happening with Cloud in Asia, optimise your strategies, secure high level networking and learn what your competition is up to in 2013 and beyond!
