AI adoption is accelerating across APAC, with enterprises of all sizes deploying tools to streamline operations, boost productivity, and enhance services. Yet as the region’s AI momentum builds, one challenge consistently surfaces: network infrastructure.

AI workloads generate massive volumes of data, requiring low latency, reliable connectivity, and seamless access to data centers. Without this, sluggish performance undermines adoption and prevents businesses from realizing AI’s full benefits.

The IDC Enterprise Horizons 2025 InfoBrief, commissioned by Expereo, underscores this challenge: 43% of tech leaders cite network performance as the top obstacle to scaling AI, and 17% admit their current connectivity cannot support AI data demands. The risk is clear — outdated networks could leave organizations unable to compete in an AI-driven economy.

Another weak spot is visibility. Over one-third of APAC enterprises say insufficient insight into network health is a critical pain point. Without monitoring tools, bottlenecks go undetected and AI workflows stall. Expereo’s expereoOne platform addresses this by providing real-time, site-level performance insights, helping CIOs stay ahead of disruptions.

To succeed with AI, CIOs across APAC must:

1. Prioritize network investments that enhance AI network connectivity.
2. Ensure high-performance application responsiveness.
3. Provide end-to-end visibility.

This is where Expereo plays a vital role. Through its extensive global partnerships and managed connectivity solutions, Expereo helps enterprises simplify complex vendor landscapes, standardize service levels, and ensure smooth cross-border connectivity. For organizations in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, and beyond, this seamless experience is critical to turning AI ambition into business advantage.

Expereo delivers more than connectivity — it delivers the operational clarity and resilience needed for enterprises to thrive in an AI-driven future.
