Asia Pacific is a fast-growing dynamic marketplace, and presents huge opportunities for Panasonic across all our B2B business segments from integrated solutions to audio visual products, said Hiro Sakamoto, Managing Director of Panasonic System Solutions Asia Pacific. Our commitment to delivering total end-to-end solutions in the region is an integral part of our growth strategy.

We continuously aspire to deliver great, if not better, quality events as countries and regions make further inroads in their smart cities journey towards a hyper-connected digital world, said Lindy Wee, Chief Executive of event organiser, Singapore Exhibition Services.
I had no idea how big CommunicAsia was. There are so many high profile companies and people here. It has been great to meet these people in person and develop new friendships and business relationships that are going to help my own business grow, said CommunicAsia2015 Summit speaker and CEO of MCOI, Joshua Steimle.
Smart Technologies to realise Singapore's Smart Nation initiative
Dr. Yaacob Ibrahim, Minister for Communications and Information announced at the opening ceremony of CommunicAsia, EnterpriseIT and BroadcastAsia that Singapore has entered the build phase of its Smart Nation initiative.
In support of Singapore's Smart Nation vision, local company ST Electronics launched the Intelligent Aggregation Gateway (iAG) Box a key enabler to ubiquitous connectivity for smart cities. Facilitating sensor communication infrastructure on a single secure platform, the iAG box can be deployed in an urban environment to help with the management of a city's key infrastructure for public safety, healthcare, transport, environment and utilities.
Alongside major conglomerates, also playing a significant role in paving the way for Singapore becoming a Smart Nation' are start-ups like CtrlWorks, Neeuro and Zap!. At CommunicAsia, CtrlWorks showcased Axon, an intelligent robot powered by cloud robotics technology, easing manpower needs for areas such as logistics and hospitals. Neeuro pioneered an innovative EEG brainwave headgear that, when paired with Memorie - a mobile app with entertaining games suited for people of all ages, can train different aspects of the brain's cognitive functions through completion of specific tasks, and enable them to apply the attained skills to daily activities. Another exciting product launch is Zap!, an Uber' courier service that offers less than two-hour deliveries from as low as S$5.
