MEDIA INVITATION FROM SAP MALAYSIA AND IDC: LATEST FINDINGS ON INTERNET OF THINGS AND BIG DATA ANALYTICS
Sunday 20/11/2016
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Abdul Razak has stated that 2017 will be the "Year of the Internet Economy", and has called on Malaysians and local businesses "to embrace, adapt to changes and explore new areas of growth to accelerate the economy." As it stands, Malaysia's Digital Economy's contribution to Gross Domestic Product touched 17.8% in 2015, just shy of the 18.2% target previously set for 2020.
SAP Malaysia is in full agreement of this view. In the past decade, the rate of adoption of new technologies has accelerated and technology is changing the rules of business with disruption becoming the norm. This will accelerate in 2017 and local businesses need to absorb, understand and adapt to these underpinning seismic shifts taking place, particularly with regards to Internet of Things and Big Data Analytics.
In this light, SAP Malaysia and international renowned research house IDC would like to invite your journalist and photographer/camera crew for a media briefing which also coincides with our Technology Roadshow Malaysia with details being as follows:
Day/Date : Thursday 24 November 2016
Time : 11am - noon, followed by lunch at Makan Kitchen, Double Tree
Venue : SAP Malaysia office, Suite 22.09, Level 22, G- Tower, 199 Jalan Tun Razak
50400 Kuala Lumpur
Hosting the event will be SAP Malaysia Managing Director Terrence Yong who will elaborate on how Malaysian businesses go be more competitive within today's Digital Economy, with real life examples of what local companies are doing to stay competitive within today's challenging global economy. Also present would be SAP (Southeast Asia) Head of Analytics Kathleen Muller who will then touch on the Impact of Analytics and Internet of Things particularly for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and how they can 'future proof' their business.
Also attending the session will be world renowned international research house IDC, represented by Asia-Pacific Research Director Chin Jun Fwu, who will share findings with media about, amongst others, the current situation here in Malaysia with regards to adoption of latest technologies.
