2009-05-21
Industry Networking Event to Serve Rapidly Growing Asia-Pacific Cloud
Services Market
Singapore — May 21st, 2009 — Virtualization and automation leader
Parallels, is putting cloud computing at the top of the agenda in Asia by
introducing its industry-uniting cloud services networking event in the region.
The Parallels APAC Summit 2009 marks the expansion of Parallels’ successful
annual event into Asia, where Springboard Research predicts that: "in 2009 every
leading hardware, software and services vendor will have a clear cloud computing
strategy. Moreover, as budgets shift from cap‐ex to op‐ex, more IT organizations
will strongly consider cloud computing as an alternative software and service
delivery model." Parallels is highly active in this market, with around 1000
customers and 200 strategic partners signed in the region.
Parallels APAC Summit 2009 will take place in Singapore on September 25th, 2009
and registration is now open. Following the format of the annual US event, the
Summit will feature in-depth business and product sessions with well-known
Parallels speakers and industry leaders offering insights into: the industry and
upcoming market trends; Parallels’ upcoming initiatives; and strategies for
building a company that grows revenue, even in this challenging economic
climate.
Additionally, the one-day event is aimed at giving attendees ample opportunity
to visit the exhibition hall and network with potential business partners,
colleagues and the Parallels team in order to forge profitable customer and
partner networks. Attendees of the event will represent all interests in the
APAC cloud computing market, including cloud services providers, ISVs,
developers, hardware vendors and other industry players.
"Interest in cloud computing and hosting is growing rapidly amongst SMBs as the
range of available services and trust in the model increases. This represents a
great opportunity for cloud service providers that are able to execute and
respond to market forces," said Antonio Piraino, Senior Analyst at Tier1
Research. "The Parallels Summit is an established industry event that brings
service providers, vendors, developers and users from across the sector’s value
chain together for networking and frank discussion about strategy, trends and
future directions."
"The success of Parallels Summit 2009 in February demonstrated both the sizeable
opportunity represented by cloud computing and Parallels’ position as a key
strategic partner for players in this space," said Serguei Beloussov, CEO of
Parallels. "We are pleased to expand this success into the Asia-Pacific market,
which represents a significant prospect for Parallels and its partners in the
cloud services space, both globally and within the region itself. Our event aims
to highlight the potential revenue streams for cloud services providers in the
region, and we hope to help them partner to survive and thrive in what is
already a very competitive landscape."
