As digital transformation accelerates across the Asia-Pacific, service providers are facing increasing pressure to deliver high-capacity, low-latency connectivity that can support cloud, AI and real-time applications. Enterprises are demanding faster, more reliable access to data and services, and legacy network infrastructure is struggling to keep up with the rapid rate of growth.

Spending on AI across the APAC region is expected to reach $175 billion by 2028, according to IDC. Mission-critical use cases – from real-time financial trading, large-scale data transfer and cloud access, to network expansion, application orchestration and content delivery – are driving unprecedented demand for ultra-fast connectivity. Data demands are continuing to surge alongside this growth, and there is a huge opportunity for APAC service providers to adapt and future-proof their connectivity to stay competitive.

The Interconnected Disaster Risks Report mentions India’s water demand is expected to double by 2030, which only means India could face extreme groundwater depletion, threatening access to drinking water for millions and also impacting the country’s GDP.
