Almost no country in the world will experience the intensity of technology disruption more than Philippines. Because of its extremely young population and huge tech penetration, the forces of change are in place for a spectacular tipping point over the next 1-2 years. Virtually all industries will be impacted and many will lose big parts of their business to technology or competitors that are faster to use it. Still others will go the way of the 500-year old print media business we all see collapsing before our eyes. Severe disruption to services as varied as travel agents, taxi and delivery services and financial advisors is already well advanced in many countries but expect the change to be faster and deeper in Philippines. Don\u2019t stand there watching it all happen! Be the disruptor or be driven out of your business and your career. The changes ahead will certainly improve all our lives in the long run because of lower costs, fewer hassles and more time for enjoying life. BUT, the short-term impact will be severe for those on the wrong side of it. **Asia TECH Summit 2016**, presented by **Sprout**, with Elite Sponsorship by **JLL** and **Regus**, will feature many of the most important technology leaders making the changes that are affecting all of us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
