Asia’s leading Cloud event!
The next step in monetising Cloud Services
A series of interactive training-intensive learning workshops & hands-on labs run by solution
providers that take operators and enterprises from A to Z in developing a holistic business

Asia boasts some of the world’s most advanced markets in Cloud adoption among
enterprises and governments, and pioneering telcos offering Cloud services. Asian
business leaders frequently emphasize the importance of Cloud in driving innovation,
cutting costs and boosting productivity.
That said, according to the Asia Cloud Computing association, issues such as reliability of
access, security, government access, privacy and intellectual property protection
still constrain the adoption of cloud services. Cloud providers and customers have also
expressed concerns about data portability, vendor lock-in and interoperability.
There is one place to get the answers to all your Cloud-related questions: the Cloud
World Forum Asia. The region’s leading & most established Cloud event delivered an
outstanding 65% growth last year, securing its place as the must-attend expo to do
Cloud business.
The CWF Asia is the only Cloud event in the region focusing on both the enterprise
and telco Cloud segments in dedicated streams. World class enterprise & government
organisation IT experts dominate the Enterprise agenda in driving innovation, cutting costs
and boosting productivity. They are joined by the movers & shakers of Cloud strategy
among Asian telecom operators proving why telcos are indeed best positioned in the
Cloud Ecosystem.
From Google and Amazon to developers and the Public Sector, the entire ecosystem
of Cloud Computing will again be joining us in 2013, securing every angle of the evolving
world of the Cloud & IT.
In 2013 we're also introducing dedicated sessions on Big Data, the next big thing
powered by the Cloud. Insightful sessions deciphering this infinite resource are to be
found throughout the agenda.
