“Asia pacific plays a critical role in the future of cloud computing, and a stronger physical presence for CSA in this region will help us provide greater access and support to governments, businesses and our rapidly growing members and partners in the region,” Cheang added.

Chen was also awarded with the CSA Leadership award at the Summit today. “I am honoured and look forward to a rewarding partnership moving into the future,” she said.
