Singapore has set the gold standard for digital infrastructure in Southeast Asia. It has retained its position as the premiere datacenter hub in the region. The country also boasts the fastest internet and mobile connection speeds (Interpol), empowering exponential growth across industries such as fintech, e-commerce, gaming and more.
With this growth, and an increasingly online population, comes a huge demand for data storage. Because of this, the datacenter industry expects to see a CAGR of 13% between 2019 and 2024 in the APAC region, with Singapore leading the way (Cushman and Wakefield).
Singapore in particular already can contribute 7% of its total energy consumption to datacenter output, a figure that is expected to rise to 12% by 2030 (Data Center News). The increased awareness and urgency around sustainability invites certain business considerations: who bears the cost of ownership when it comes to sustainability? How can businesses take steps to “Green their Cloud”
This session, “Sustainability Snapshot 2022: The Future of Singapore’s Green Digital Infrastructure” will aim to answer questions about how the datacenter market in Singapore is driving cross-industry growth, with a special focus on new environmentally friendly technologies and regulations. Over the course of 1 hour, we will hear from industry experts, engage in take a deeper look into how you can select the correct digital infrastructure solutions for your company.
