AI adoption drives higher sustainability impact in Singapore

Approximately 63% of firms in Singapore report AI has a high impact on their carbon footprint.

Businesses in countries leading artificial intelligence (AI) adoption report greater impacts on their sustainability efforts, according to NetApp.

In Singapore, approximately 63% of firms state that AI has a high or extremely high impact on their carbon footprint, closely following Australia/New Zealand at approximately 64%, which leads the Asia-Pacific region.

Other APAC countries surveyed, such as India and Japan, reported slightly lower percentages at approximately 53% and 49%, respectively, compared to the global average of 50%.

Meanwhile, countries lagging in AI adoption report lower impacts, with Germany and Spain at approximately 38% and 39%, respectively. France, however, stands out despite being amongst the laggards, with approximately 56% of businesses reporting a high impact.

NetApp surveyed 1,300 tech and data executives across businesses in nine markets, including the US, EMEA (UK, France, Germany, Spain), and APAC (Australia/New Zealand, India, Singapore, Japan).

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.
