Forrester Announces AI Forum Singapore And Sydney 2026 Agendas To Convert Rising AI Investment Into Customer Value And Trust

Published

on

The Forums will equip business and technology leaders with the frameworks and insights needed to scale AI and deliver measurable outcomes

SINGAPORE, June 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Forrester (Nasdaq: FORR) today announced the full conference agendas for its AI Forum Singapore, being held on August 20, 2026, and AI Forum Sydney, happening August 25, 2026, both centered on the theme, “AI Into Action: Unlock Your Opportunity.”

By 2030, almost one-quarter of tech spend in Asia Pacific will come from AI-related investments. Yet many organizations across the region remain stuck in fragmented pilots, misaligned priorities, and limited ability to demonstrate AI’s impact beyond productivity gains. These Forums are designed to help leaders move beyond experimentation to unlock the AI opportunity for long-term growth.

Both Forums will feature research-led Forrester keynotes, industry speakers, targeted track sessions, hands-on workshops, analyst access, and peer networking to help leaders operationalize AI at scale. AI Forum Singapore will bring together technology, security, and B2B marketing leaders focused on transforming go-to-market (GTM) and revenue strategies, while AI Forum Sydney will convene technology, security, and customer experience leaders looking to improve customer outcomes and differentiation.

Key sessions on the agendas include:

The AI Voyage — From Experiments To Customer Outcomes. Many organizations remain stuck in isolated pilots that fail to deliver meaningful impact. This opening keynote will show how leading firms move from experimentation to enterprisewide AI programs that drive measurable customer and business outcomes.Make Skills The Foundation Of Your Agentic AI Journey. As human and AI capabilities converge, organizations face fragmented systems and unclear workforce implications. This session introduces Forrester’s skills-oriented agentic architecture to help leaders align capabilities, strengthen governance, and build more adaptive operating models.Protect The Agentic Enterprise With AEGIS. Agentic AI introduces new risks that many organizations are unprepared to manage. This session will demonstrate how CISOs and senior leaders can apply Forrester’s AEGIS framework to scale AI responsibly while preserving trust.Disconnected GTM Efforts Will Ruin Your Company (Singapore-only). Fragmented teams and misaligned incentives are undermining B2B growth. This session will show how a unified, buyer-centric GTM approach can help leaders prioritize high-value segments, align revenue strategies, and respond faster to changing customer needs.Identify AI Solutions That Solve Customer Problems (Sydney-only). Many AI initiatives fail because they start with technology instead of customer needs. In this session, attendees will learn how to use Forrester’s Digital Moments Map and Customer Experience Index (CX Index™) to prioritize AI investments that improve customer outcomes and drive differentiation.Signals, Shifts, And Smart Bets — A Forrester Predictions Preview. In a rapidly evolving landscape, leaders often lack clarity on where to invest. This session will highlight key trends and help executives identify the strategic bets needed to stay ahead.

“Many organizations are still treating AI as a set of disconnected use cases rather than a coordinated capability that creates customer value and business growth,” said Sharyn Leaver, chief research officer at Forrester. “Leaders who align cross-functional teams around a shared, customer-led approach to AI will not only scale faster but also create the kind of differentiated customer experiences that drive outsized growth. Our Forums are designed to help leaders move from experimentation to execution and turn AI into a source of lasting advantage.”

LITEON Partners With SUTD and Its Spinoff NeuroRAN to Drive AI-RAN Innovation, Advancing Real-Time Edge AI Commercialization over 5G

Published

on

By

TAIPEI, June 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LITEON Technology announced a major milestone in AI-RAN innovation through its collaboration with the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) and SUTD’s spinoff company, NeuroRAN at COMPUTEX 2026. The joint demonstration showcases how AI can be natively integrated into 5G Radio Access Networks (RAN), enabling real-time, privacy-preserving, and energy-efficient edge AI applications.

At the core of the solution is dynamic AI model partitioning. LITEON provides the high-performance O-RU (Radio Unit) integrated with the AI-RAN infrastructure, while SUTD develops AI applications leveraging advanced deep learning models such as the Swin Transformer for real-time video object detection. The solution runs on NVIDIA AI infrastructure, integrating NVIDIA AI Aerial software and high-performance computing to tightly couple AI with 5G networks.

A key innovation is the use of AI-driven spectrum sensing to inform decisions to dynamically distribute AI workloads between user equipment (UE) and edge/cloud environments based on real-time network conditions. Compared with traditional fixed partitioning, this approach significantly reduces latency, optimizes energy consumption, and ensures that sensitive data remains on-device, enhancing both privacy and performance.

The demonstration also integrates a distributed UPF (dUPF) with the 5G core network, further reducing end-to-end latency and strengthening edge AI deployment capabilities for real-world applications such as smart cities, intelligent surveillance, and industrial automation.

Richard Chiang, General Manager of LITEON’s Smart Life Application Strategic Business Unit, said: “Through our collaboration with SUTD and NeuroRAN, we are accelerating AI-RAN from vision to commercialization. By combining LITEON’s expertise in O-RAN and radio infrastructure with advanced NVIDIA AI platforms and applications, we aim to deliver more flexible and efficient network architectures for telecom operators and enterprises.”

Chen Bin Bin, Associate Professor at SUTD and Deputy Director of the Future Communications R&D Programme (FCP), said: “SUTD and our spinoff company, NeuroRAN, are thrilled to partner with LITEON in developing this cutting-edge AI-RAN demonstration. It showcases how intelligent 5G networks can play a key role in enabling new physical AI use cases.”

Looking ahead, LITEON will continue to expand its AI-RAN ecosystem partnerships and accelerate the deployment of real-time AI applications. In addition to AI-RAN commercialization, LITEON plans to provide telecom operators with a flexible AI development environment leveraging NVIDIA DGX Spark platforms, enabling operators to accelerate the research, validation, and deployment of next-generation edge AI applications and services. By utilizing DGX Spark for AI model development and small-scale testing, telecom operators can rapidly prototype innovative AI-driven use cases before scaling them across commercial 5G and future network infrastructures.
