Spire Country Manager for Singapore, Ingrid Rix, shares the findings of the expectations of tech users at the GATES ICT Business Channel Summit, Southeast Asia 2022.

Spire is a regular speaker at the GATES summit events, even at the virtual events conducted during the pandemic. This latest GATES Summit was held in Bali, Indonesia, from 3 to 5 August 2022.

Prior to the event, Spire conducted a survey to gather input on the expectations of tech users, the significance of cyber security, and the innovation of upcoming tech products. This survey targeted GATES stakeholders in Southeast Asian countries.

Spire Singapore’s Country Manager, Ingrid Rix, collated and shared the findings of the survey at the event. Ingrid disclosed that tech users’ expectations are increasing dramatically and this is likely to stay. Many of them also said that they believe that there would be breakthroughs in tech products in the next 2 to 3 years.

The survey revealed that there has been a drastic increase in cyber security issues. There is a gap between user understanding and what professionals believe. Ingrid shared that this is a huge opportunity to provide solutions for this space.

The GATES ICT Business Channel Summit brought together channel executives from ten countries including Singapore, Indonesia, Myanmar, the Philippines, and Cambodia.
