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).

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
