Government forecasts $1.1bln public sector infocomm tenders

Overall outlook for the infocomm industry remains positive, according to the IDA, amidst increased spending in IT and demand for infocomm services.

RADM(NS) Ronnie Tay, Chief Executive of the Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore, noted that the government will continue to invest in infocomm to drive productivity and innovation within the public sector.

In financial year 2010, the Government awarded 647 infocomm contracts worth more than $1.12 billion. This figure excludes the awarded amount of $850 million for the Schools Standard ICT Operating Environment project.

IDA Chief Executive said, "Besides the Government's investment in infocomm to benefit citizens and businesses, we will also spur infocomm innovation and productivity by nurturing a thriving and vibrant infocomm industry. Toward that end, we will continue to facilitate adoption of infocomm across sectors, as well as continued engagement and collaboration between the public and private sectors.”

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
