Fibre investment continues to play out as one of the hottest topics across digital infrastructure in APAC. The need for connectivity across markets has led to intensified rollout and monetisation strategies from operators. Leaders from the space discuss the rapidly evolving environment. 

 

  • What is the M&A outlook for fibre in APAC?  Where is the bulk of investment happening and who is leading the charge?
  • How have major broadband operators, especially in countries such as Indonesia and the Philippines, intensified ‘fiberisation’ to keep up with the growing demands of high-speed and reliable broadband?
  • Examining different fibre monetisation strategies across the region and their outcomes
