Asia's flagship technology event, ATxEnterprise (ATxE) 2025, is set to return for its fifth edition, promising to be a significant gathering for global technology leaders and innovators. Scheduled to take place in Singapore, this year's event is organized by the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) and Informa Festivals, with the backing of the Singapore Tourism Board (STB). Over 200 global technology leaders, policymakers, and enterprise executives will convene to engage in high-level discussions about the future of technology.
As Singapore intensifies its efforts to enhance digital capabilities and promote AI adoption across various sectors, the event aligns with the national direction outlined in Budget 2025. A key highlight will be the insights shared on the SG$150 million Enterprise Compute Initiative, aimed at improving AI access for businesses in Singapore.
