Digital transformation has already disrupted the traditional payment ecosystem. Now a new subcategory, paytech, is dominating the Fintech revolution. Most innovative services are included in the paytech ecosystem, such as instant, cross-border, mobile, invisible, peer-to-peer or cryptocurrency payments. Furthermore, banks and financial institutions had to digitalize their existing services, creating a new channel with the digital platform. The recent emergence of Neobanks has particularly influenced the historical players by providing innovative approaches leveraging technologies and social media. However, payment services success is based on the perceived confidence future customers will have in the different payment platforms. Trust in the payment service is directly linked to the associated security.

5G is on its way. It may be closer to 2019-2020 for some but for others, it may be 2023-2025 before it materializes. In all the countries that are frontrunners of 5G in Asia-Pacific, 5G is benefiting from local government support coupled with local demand or at least the potential for demand for 5G services. The demand may be incentive or market driven.
The market for 5G is expected to have reached $4.50 billion by 2022 with 280.4 million 5G subscriptions. The implementation timeline for MNOs will vary from country to country, albeit not as widely as it was with 3G or 4G. Frost and Sullivan expects that government support for 5G in populous countries such as China and India and new business models that will emerge out of the trials by MNOs at the upcoming Olympics will support high service revenue growth at CAGR of 315.1% from 2019 to 2022.
5G will trigger a quicker transition to distributed, cloud native networks that leverage on NFV, SDN, and MEC to reduce cost to serve and improve on efficiency and profitability for MNOs. Further, with 5G offering latency below 1ms and larger bandwidths, mobile networks can gain an edge over fibre networks and regain competitiveness.
If you have any client that has an interest in gaining an in depth understanding of 5G developments in Asia Pacific, this study will help address questions such as:
•How will 5G impact industry?
•What are the market challenges and opportunities?
•What are the key drivers for growth?
•How big will the market be for 5G by 2022?
The need to embrace digital transformation in all possible scenarios is paramount to bring efficiencies and improve current business processes. The challenges of real-time data processing, high network speeds and latency can be overcome by using ICT technologies, i.e., Mobile Edge Computing/Fog Computing. These computing technologies bring compute and storage capabilities to the edge of the network and enable real-time and context-based business applications. All industry verticals can find relevant application areas that can benefit from computing at the edge of the network.

Prior to the era of digital transformation, international expansion was largely the domain of very large organisations that were capable of investing in infrastructure across the world. Today, the vast majority of IT solutions that enable innovation are deployed in the cloud; such solutions are opening up new opportunities for businesses of all sizes. When it comes to international expansion, acting local but delivering consistent and flexible services is essential. Cloud-based solutions allow organisations to internationalise quickly and enable start-ups to be “born global”.
Digital transformation is already impacting financial services, and future banking will evolve to leverage technology in ways that will have a much deeper implication to customer service than current use cases. As a result, numerous interactions between customers and digital banking will be done by using mobile devices and cloud-based platforms. Furthermore, security will be key to creating confidence in the value chain. Financial service providers are investing in bringing services to customers on personal devices, increasing the need for software/hardware security solutions for authentication of transactions. Biometrics can be leveraged for strong authentication and to comply with regional regulations.

For more than a decade, industry experts have predicted the death of smart cards. However, the embedded SIM (eSIM) has an impact on the telecommunication vertical, and many other verticals continue to benefit from the tremendous advantages of this secured device. Frost & Sullivan forecasts that, in 2017, the market will continue to grow at a 4.7% CAGR globally for all verticals, including telecommunication, banking and payment, government and ID, transportation, and physical and logical access. In a growing market, innovation is key. This is why major players have added innovative functionalities to the existing medium to strengthen security and provide a more exciting user experience.

Digital transformation is impacting the automotive industry thanks to the rise of embedded software, autonomous behavior and hyper connectivity. But connected cars are often mentioned when referring to hacking or security threats and risks. At Frost & Sullivan, we strongly think that connected cars will drastically change the way people interact with vehicles due to the numerous communication technologies and associated services that will be available. Even if security is mandatory to create confidence in connected car usage, real value-added services are also vital for a successful commercial rollout. The My-Car-as-a-Service concept will transform existing car usage in a frictionless experience.

Cybersecurity is one of the most important, yet misunderstood and underappreciated professions in the world. It has near-zero unemployment and a worker shortfall that grows every year—a gap projected to reach 1.8 million by 2022. Given the talent shortfall, and the apparent attention, it is difficult to understand why more women are not attracted to the field. If they were, the workforce gap could be reversed.
A panel of thought leaders will discuss concrete steps to close the workforce gap, the role that women should play in achieving that goal, the equality challenges facing women in the profession, and quantitative key performance indicators that organizations must implement to create a gender-balanced workforce that offers equal opportunities for all professionals.
