APAC tech round-up – July 2020

July has been a busy month for us, a month that is traditionally dotted with enterprise tech events that have since been moved online amid the Covid-19 pandemic.

On the sidelines of Salesforce.com’s virtual event in the APAC region, we spoke with Rizwan Hazarika, the chief digital officer of SingEx, a key player in the events industry in Singapore and Southeast Asia.

During our conversation, Ridwan was candid about the challenges he is facing in transforming SingEx which has been very much affected by the dearth of physical events in the industry.

In this Loom video, check out Ridwan’s views of what the future of the events sector could look like, how companies are going back to basics to fend off cyber attacks and a new analytics initiative by the University of Queensland to determine the best treatments for Covid-19.

We hope you enjoy the video, and please tell us what you think in the comments box.
