The connectivity shift transforming FMCG
The Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) industry has always moved fast. Now it moves in real time as consumer demand shifts overnight, and supply chains face constant disruption reducing profit by up to 42% over a decade. Product availability, inventory levels, and logistics performance can change by the hour. In this environment, growth no longer […]
Why logistics networks must evolve for real-time operations
Transport and logistics businesses are moving towards a model that’s constantly in motion and powered by continuous streams of operational data. From fleet tracking and warehouse automation to AI-driven route optimization, digital technologies are transforming how goods move through the supply chain. 78% of supply chain leaders report significant operational improvements after implementing AI-powered logistics solutions. […]
Modern life sciences needs a new connectivity strategy
The life sciences industry has always depended on data integrity. What has changed is the speed, scale, and complexity of the environments that data now moves through. Research, clinical trials, manufacturing, and distribution no longer operate as isolated functions. They operate as a connected digital ecosystem where data moves continuously between systems, cloud platforms, laboratories, […]
How do you stay online when infrastructure fails?
Enterprise networks are being pushed harder than ever. Across the Middle East and other high-growth regions, connectivity underpins everything from cloud platforms to AI-driven operations. The dependency is absolute. If the network fails, the business stops, making enterprise network resilience critical. Saving on costs used to be the priority, but the goalposts have moved. Protecting operations, revenue, and […]
AI doesn’t run on the cloud. It runs on power and networks.
Why the AI boom is quietly turning connectivity into critical infrastructure Artificial intelligence has become the favorite abstraction of our time. We talk about models, parameters, and “the cloud” as if intelligence materializes out of thin air. It does not. AI runs on electricity, physical infrastructure, and increasingly fragile assumptions about how data moves around […]
What makes a network AI-ready? A practical guide for enterprises
Have you noticed that AI isn’t waiting for your network to catch up? Across every industry, AI projects are moving at speed. Models are getting larger. Data volumes are exploding. Inference is happening everywhere; from cloud cores to edge locations to branch sites. And suddenly, the network is no longer just infrastructure. It’s the deciding […]
Why AI breaks networks that look fine on paper
Julian Skeels, Chief Digital Officer at Expereo, recently spoke at TechEx Global and challenged some deeply held assumptions about networks and AI. We sat down with him afterwards to get his insights and key takeaways for CIOs looking to make AI a success this year. What are the key messages from your talk at TechEx? […]
2026: From ambition to execution
We’re only a couple of weeks into 2026 but the direction of travel is already beginning to take shape. This will be a year where execution matters more than ambition. Technology change and uncertainty will continue to shape the business landscape, and several forces are set to define business leaders and CIOs priorities over the […]
Turning network data into network ROI
Network connectivity is the biggest technology investment for 43% of enterprise IT leaders, according to IDC research. That’s ahead of AI and cybersecurity. That’s because many have found that their networks are outdated and need optimization. However, what you can’t track, you can’t optimize. And without data-backed network performance optimization, transformation projects stall, resilience issues […]
Will 2026 bring more AI-driven growth for telcos in Asia-Pacific?
If 2025 was the year where organizations focused on experimenting with AI, 2026 is shaping up to be the year that enterprises across Asia Pacific move from experimenting with AI to full-scale production and deployment. However, these same organizations must do so with the realization that network will be the bottleneck that determines who succeeds. […]
