BANGKOK, May 24, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – InfoComm Asia 2023 opens its doors at the newly-built Queen Sirikit National Convention Center (QSNCC) on Wednesday morning, to a louder buzz than before. The unmistakable excitement in the air is understandable with the Show's 38% expansion in size. This and the presence of heavyweights among all stakeholder categories attest to InfoComm Asia's success in bringing together Professional AudioVisual (AV) solution providers, solution-seekers and key industry experts, and in helping organizations achieve their digital transformation goals.

AROUND THE SHOW FLOOR
Technological Innovations and Business Opportunities Abound

Spanning the exhibition halls, AV and IT channel professionals, as well as vertical market buyers are being greeted by 160 exhibiting companies from 13 countries, some 60 of whom are new at the Show. Major brands visitors can look out for include AVCIT, Audio Technica, Arthur Holm, Biamp, BOE, Bose, Christie, Crestron, Dahua, Danacoid, Harman, Hikvision, Horion, Jabra, Kramer, Lenovo, Lumens, Leyard, Philips, Planar, MaxHub, Sennheiser, Shure, Unilumin, Vertex and many more.

Guided Show Floor Tours that Enhance Visitor Experience

Through the Invited Guest Program, nearly 600 key senior decision-makers – 65% more than last year – from Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Laos, and the Philippines, as well as Thais from outside Bangkok, are being welcomed at InfoComm Asia 2023. They represent government agencies involved in education, healthcare, defense and security, smart cities, urban planning, transportation and citizen services, as well as industry and business leaders in retail, media and advertising, and real estate development.

With much ground to cover, the 600 vertical market solution-seekers will participate in a specially planned Guided Show Floor Tour for a personal introduction to leading solution providers and their latest technology and product offerings. Post-tour, they will have the opportunity to further connect with the exhibitors and learn more about their solutions up-close.

LEARNING SPACE FOR ALL
Insights into Current, Evolving and Future Technologies and Market Trends

InfoComm Asia continues to inspire and invigorate visionary leaders and organizational decision-makers at its signature learning platforms – InfoComm Asia Summit and NIXT Summit. Over the three show days, visitors can look forward to more than 40 free-to-attend sessions across five different tracks that are either co- organized with or supported by local Thai government agencies, trade associations and institutes of higher learning. These sessions address current and foreseeable challenges facing vertical market decision-makers and AV industry stakeholders, and deliver key learning points for overcoming these challenges inspired by real- life use cases.

Summit highlights on 24 May (Day 1) include the following:

– At Asia AV Leaders Connect, specially-invited Professional AV Industry's C-suite and Directorate-level Leaders will have the opportunity to network and share knowledge on industry trends and emerging technology disruptions, and to identify future growth opportunities and potential collaborations. This segment is anchored by a talk on "Global Pro-AV Market Trends in the Next 3 – 5 Years" – highly apt in light of the current incredible pace of evolution of communication, collaboration and user experience technologies.

– NIXT Summit highlights emerging tech-driven integrated solutions. This year's focus is on the Education and Retail industries. The program for each of these industries will culminate in a by invitation-only networking reception for top professionals from the respective industries.

– The ever-popular AV Technical Tour was quickly booked out the moment registration opened. Tour participants will be treated to a close-up live presentation of Hikvision's customizable, high-performing yet easy-to-maintain LED screen, in addition to its application in meeting rooms as well as along high-traffic routes at the newly-built Queen Sirikit National Convention Center (QSNCC).

Independent Research Firm Confirms: AI Decision Platform of German Software Vendor ACTICO is ‘Strong Performer’

CHICAGO, IL, May 18, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – Today, independent analyst firm Forrester Research released The Forrester Wave(TM): AI Decisioning Platforms, Q2 2023 (1). Forrester names German vendor ACTICO a 'Strong Performer' among 12 other firms. The German company, with offices in Chicago and Singapore, develops compliance and credit decisioning software for the finance sector. These applications are based on the award-winning ACTICO Platform, which was evaluated in the Forrester report on the basis of 23 criteria and alongside 12 platforms of other vendors.

Finance sector provides instant response in turbulent times with ACTICO Platform

In times of constant political and economic change, banks, insurers and financial service providers need to respond quickly to changes – such as new insights into customer behavior or to changes in financial policy. Users can use the ACTICO Platform to adapt guidelines – for example, those governing credit decisions, the monitoring of payment transactions, or customer communication in real time – within a few hours, test scenarios with altered conditions and then activate these during day-to-day operations. A well-designed framework ensures that no programming knowledge is required. Previously, system adaptations took experts weeks, as external software service providers or the IT department were involved – and this is still the case today at many banks, insurance companies and financial service providers. A look back at the turbulence of recent years gives an idea of how often such adjustments were necessary.

Highest possible scores in several categories for German Software Engineering

The report's vendor profile of ACTICO states that their platform tools are designed for business experts to easily define and manage their decisions across the entire lifecycle. Forrester finds ACTICO's European customer list – which includes Santander, Volkswagen Financial Services and ING – "impressive," adding that they could increase adoption in this incredibly competitive market by expanding more aggressively into North America. The report went on to state that "ACTICO has strengths in decision logic authoring tools, explainability, application development tools, solution accelerators, and security." Further, Forrester calls ACTICO Platform a good fit "for customers that are looking to implement one of ACTICO's solution accelerators, especially for organizations in highly regulated industries."

Clever integration of machine learning into banking processes

ACTICO customers use AI or machine learning when they check whether a payroll in a loan application is forged, a bank transaction violates applicable embargoes or securities trading shows criminal patterns, for instance. "The fact that we have achieved the highest score possible in the explainability, and security criteria is very important for our customers. After all, they are supervised by various regulatory authorities," Hans Jurgen Rieder, CEO of ACTICO, resumes.
