In a recent Enterprise Radio interview, APTelecom’s Joaquin Malavet, Senior Advisor, and Alex Chace, Vice President of Global Government Affairs, discussed the growing importance of resilient digital infrastructure in supporting the AI era. The conversation explored how trusted network design, route diversity, and long-term infrastructure planning are becoming increasingly important as countries across Southeast Asia, including the Philippines and Vietnam, continue to invest in digital growth and data centre development.
The discussion also highlighted APTelecom’s work on projects including BTI, SubConnex, and the Central Pacific Connect Initiative, as well as the company’s focus on helping governments, operators, and technology partners deliver secure, high-capacity connectivity. Looking ahead, the interview examined how AI is reshaping network planning, driving demand for greater capacity, resilience, and strategic fibre infrastructure to support future economic growth.
