In 2006, Amazon Web Services (AWS) revolutionized the way businesses procure and run their technology infrastructures by introducing a platform of infrastructure technology services in the cloud. This empowered businesses all over the world with greater flexibility and cost effectiveness, which allowed them to focus on their core business and bring their products to market faster. Last year, AWS announced it was bringing its cloud to Asia Pacific. Now the head of AWS, Amazon Senior Vice President Andy Jassy, is coming to Singapore to share his thoughts on the cloud and its implications.

On 29 April 2010, AWS and IDA invites top executives, distinguished guests, existing AWS customers, and others from the APAC infocomm community to participate in the IDA Distinguished Infocomm Speaker Series breakfast event! If you are an entrepreneur, business owner, infocomm player or simply someone eager to explore more about this exciting new frontier, then this is your perfect opportunity to network with others in the industry.
