Research from IDC highlights how AI-powered low-code development accelerates application creation in APAC. Considering 60% of apps in our region are legacy with costly maintenance needs; modernisation is a key focus for enterprises facing skill shortages. The study also noted that 68% of APAC enterprises are adopting low code, IDEs, and DevOps tools to address digital transformation demands and streamline development. Furthermore, around 25% of APAC enterprises, especially in Australia, India, Japan, and Southeast Asia, are embedding gen AI into dev tools. GenAI's integration with low code helps APAC organisations accelerate legacy modernisation and shorten development cycles without compromising performance. And with 60% of global businesses projected to adopt low code by 2025, our region is leading the way to addressing developer scarcity and building resilience through low-code development. #GenAI #lowcode #APAC

Singapore Enterprise Application Priorities - Cloud Storage leads the way. Our comprehensive research, conducted by capioIT, delved into the investment priorities of 512 technology and business executives based in Singapore. While we covered 16 key software areas, for the analysis, we focused on five key areas: Cloud Storage and Backup, Collaboration, CRM, Data Analytics, and ERP. These areas, known for their significant business outcomes, are Singaporean organisations' primary drivers of technology spending. The results were as interesting as we had expected. Overall, Cloud Storage and Backup was the number one priority. Collaboration, data analytics, CRM, and ERP followed this. When we broke the results down into company size, there started to be some exciting results. Collaboration was the number one tool requirement for large organisations, i.e. with over 5,000 employees, representing approximately 15% of the survey. This, of course, makes sense for large organisations. Cloud storage and backup were in the second position. Cloud storage and backup were number one for the smallest organisations, i.e., those with 100-250 employees, followed by data analytics and collaboration. CRM was the number one priority for 23% of respondents in the 251-500 employee range, and for 15% in the 501-1,000 employee range, the number one priority was Data Analytics. What are the key messages from the data? Firstly, even in a market the size of Singapore, you must take a variety of approaches to the market. Organisations of different sizes and industries have different requirements. This means that software providers, SaaS or otherwise, must have a localised approach with specific partners and go-to-market models. What works for the most prominent organisations will not work for the smallest. It also requires a cost-effective approach to the market, as coverage is difficult. If markets like ERP are not a Singapore customer priority, then investments need to be very strategic to maximise the opportunity. We look forward to continuing our research and comparing Singapore's market with others. This will provide further valuable insights. If you have any questions or would like to discuss our findings, please don't hesitate to reach out to Phil Hassey at [email protected] or +61422231793. We value your input and would be happy to hear your thoughts on our research.

The speed of technology's expansion is helping supercharge economic growth and development in the Asia Pacific region. According to JLL, #APAC is expected to contribute around 60% of global GDP growth in the next decade. More advanced IT solutions, including AI and automation, are delivering enhanced efficiency and productivity across a multitude of industries. More powerful technology and a greater level of access across the region are already delivering innovation in spades: in 2022, around two-thirds of new patent filings came from the Asia Pacific region. With the remarkable potential the region has to offer, it's encouraging to help provide the technology solutions to unlock it.

RISING business costs, manpower shortages and the need for transformation ranked as the top concerns for Singapore’s small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), based on the latest annual survey by the Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCCI) “Sentiment among respondents about this year’s business outlook is mixed,” said SCCCI president Kho Choon Keng, as he previewed key survey findings ahead of its full release later this year. Rising costs are the biggest concern in 2024, cited by 73 per cent of businesses, followed by manpower availability (54 per cent) and business transformation (37 per cent). The top two concerns remain the same as last year, but concerns over uncertain economic and political conditions abroad – which ranked among the top three in 2023 – did not make the list this year.
