What can Singtel expect from its acquistion of Trustwave?

The telco has been ramping up its cyber security.

Telco giant Singtel is making all the right moves as it invests and builds up its cyber security and ICT capabilities. OCBC Investment Research said this is evident from its strong enterprise revenue growth.

OCBC noted that while its acquistion of the cyber security firm Trustwave is expected to turn profitable only in a few years, it has a potential to be a significant growth driver of Singtel’s enterprise business over the medium-to-longer-term.

The brokerage firm also commended Singtel for the said initiatives, given that Singapore’s Committee on the Future Economy has identified building strong digital capabilities as one of the seven key economic strategies.

"With CFE recommending to develop the digital economy in Singapore on a national level, we expect Singtel to benefit from it over the longer term," OCBC said.

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.
