With extensive expertise in numerous ICT domains, such as networks, cloud, security, and managed services and experience in consulting works, I provide reliable and up-to-date industry insights with empirically derived market intelligence services. Additionally, I can meet the dynamic and increasingly fluid requirements of modern businesses, providing them with advisory services customized and contextualized to the region, industry, and organizations. Based in Kuala Lumpur, my research's primary focus is the market and competitive analyses and user demands and preferences within the ASEAN and Asia/Pacific region. Beyond that, I also gather insights into the current and emerging technology trends and predictions and evolving business models and practices. Before joining IDC, I was an enterprise technology journalist, reporting on trends and analysis in enterprise technology and digital transformation, covering a wide array of verticals in the region. I explored how businesses and government agencies leverage emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, cloud computing, DevOps, Big Data, and automation platforms to improve operational efficiencies to provide better services to the public in the digital age.
