With emerging markets undergoing rapid digital transformation and the adoption of cloud, e-commerce, and AI accelerating, the pace of change has never been faster. In a world where technology moves at lightning speed, no player can succeed alone. Collaboration and cross-border partnerships are essential, especially in data centers and interconnectivity, where shared platforms and ecosystems are key to staying resilient and scaling effectively.
When people with a shared purpose come together, the energy is palpable. The connections formed often evolve into powerful partnerships and spark innovation. This was echoed by Brian Moon, CEO of Pacific Telecommunications Council (PTC).
Speaking of the impact of PTC events, Moon says, “PTC events have led to major collaborations and innovations in telecom, ICT, and data centers. For example, partnerships formed at PTC have resulted in new subsea cable systems and data center expansions. These events also bring together network providers, cloud companies, and data center operators to develop solutions like edge computing and green energy models.”
PTC’s impact is further magnified through a partnership with W.Media, a technology events and media company that’s steadily building influence and fostering meaningful connections across the industry.
“The partnership between PTC and W.Media strengthens the telecom, ICT, and data center ecosystem by combining our unique strengths. PTC creates a global platform for collaboration across businesses, government, and academic institutions globally, while W.Media amplifies these efforts through its events and media expertise. Together, we connect key players, highlight emerging trends in data centers, connectivity, and cloud services, and ensure the industry’s most important conversations reach a wider audience. This collaboration drives innovation and builds partnerships that benefit the entire ecosystem,” says Moon.
“Further, both our organizations share a vision of advancing digital infrastructure and connectivity in Asia. W.Media’s tech events and engaging of stakeholders across telecom, ICT, and data center industries makes them a solid partner.”
Vincent Liew, Publisher and Event Producer at W.Media, says, “As Asia gears up for AI adoption, we see a pressing need to connect the dots between network infrastructure, capital, and technology. Asia Interconnect World, in partnership with PTC, is our response to that need — building a space and filling a gap where meaningful collaboration drives regional progress.”
Founded in 1978, PTC (www.ptc.org) is a non-profit membership organization committed to advancing digital infrastructure, telecommunications, and the ICT industry globally, with a focus on the Pacific Rim.
