various major Asian markets with the plan to increase its presence across the continent
with Japan having obtained the service already with Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea and
Singapore follow on in early 2016.



More localised content means more capacity is needed to meet the demand of the content
providers.  This in turn creates both challenges and opportunities for the wholesale
telecom operators within the region with new infrastructure required and new investment
opportunities.



Capacity Asia 2015, brings together the entire Asian wholesale telecoms industry to
come together to secure new business and meet the latest major player and smaller start-up
organisations from across the community. Taking place on 30 November - 2 December in
Bangkok, the 12th annual conference will bring together 500+ senior level wholesale
telecoms executives from 200+ global organisations.



The 3-day event's agenda packs in 30+ market leader speakers representing Asia's
entire wholesale telecoms ecosystem including C-level speakers from Amazon Web Services,
