The world of VR is quickly growing beyond media and entertainment, supported by the advancement of technology that allows for optimal VR experience, whether consuming or creating VR content. Dell has been delivering immersive computing experience for many years and is committed in enabling VR partners across the entire ecosystem besides providing advanced hardware configuration. BroadcastAsia provided the perfect opportunity to showcase how we can support the democratisation of VR for the masses in areas such as Education, Architecture & Real Estate, Manufacturing, and Advertising. We have had overwhelming response at the booth, and look forward to developing new partnerships in furthering the growth of VR in the APJ region, said Harveenpal Singh, Business Development Lead, Precision Workstation, Client Solutions, Dell APJ.
We were very impressed with the level of real demand for the next generation IP-based broadcast systems. We had an overwhelming response to the new systems we launched in Asia for the first time at BroadcastAsia. From revenue-generating systems like Paywizard and Starfish right through to the revolutionary Electricfriends camera robotic system that we use to great effect with Vizrt in their augmented reality demos, said Fintan Mc Kiernan, Chief Executive Officer, Ideal Systems SEA.
Michael Tan, Founder and CEO of Zap Delivery said, Zap Delivery participated in this years CommunicAsia to showcase our new e-commerce delivery platform. The main objective is to increase awareness and solicit leads and partnership opportunities. Through the media attention and various tech tours, we were able to secure a few partnership opportunities in markets that we previously had no reach to. The exposure and returns were good, we will definitely be back next year!
