Asia-Pacific contributing ‘reasonable part’ of Lenovo’s US$21 billion AI server pipeline
Growth is not driven just by mature markets as it positions itself as a full-stack provider, says Apac president
[SINGAPORE] Lenovo, which is probably best known for selling personal electronic devices such as laptops and tablets, wants to be known as more than the world’s largest PC company. It is now looking to evolve into a full-stack technology provider as it rides the artificial intelligence wave.
Amar Babu, Lenovo’s Asia-Pacific president, who was in Singapore recently to meet customers, told The Business Times that he thinks Lenovo is currently only in the first year of what he sees as a decade-long opportunity for the company to capitalise on the AI wave by offering its enterprise infrastructure, and services and solutions.
“Data within the enterprise is not going to be on the cloud because it’s got to be secure. Each enterprise’s data point... has got to be secure either on premises or in a private cloud,” he said.
