GovWare Focus Series

The GovWare Focus Series facilitates impactful dialogues for cyber and enterprise leaders within the Critical Information Infrastructure (CII) sectors.

We invite CISOs and senior executives in user enterprises and public sectors to register their interest in future GovWare Focus Series events.

What Brings the World to GovWare Events

“It's a rare opportunity to get the holistic picture in cyberspace. GovWare/SICW provides a unique opportunity to gain knowledge and connect skills across the world. It is one of the unique events where the densest population of Cyber professionals gather per square foot during the week of October. You can get in touch with the strategic leaders, policy makers, regulators, government agencies, technology partners, defense experts, business leaders, innovators, startups etc.”
Jagathesh Rajavasagam
Risk & Cyber Security Officer
“I'm inspired by the size (of GovWare). It is an amazing collection of both people and companies that are participating, and sharing information. I would like to see continued success.”
Dr. Cormac Callanan
Cybersecurity Coordinator, ESIWA (Enhancing Security Cooperation in and with Asia)
“I like that all the security vendors are here; it shows the plethora (of solutions and services)... I would like to see a lot more startups… We want to know what the startups are working on. It could be great technologies. It could be technologies that we need now… to mitigate some of the risks or gaps.”
Hussain Munir
Security and Infrastructure Manager, Clough
“[GovWare] draws in the international crowd and gives us that freebie in terms of international exposure to allow us to springboard to some of these markets that, that we would not have entered on our own.”
Dr Eugene Loke
Medical Director & Family Physician, 1doc Medical Centre
“By being in GovWare, we are actually able to look at the different offerings, products, and solutions that are provided by many different companies. It's not only from the endpoint security perspective, but it's good to be able to know what are the technology and innovations that are available in the cloud security, for example, or even for all the data in transit and the security as a whole, in terms of the cyber security ecosystem. And it's great, to be able to partner with them to have conversations so that when we are actually offering our solutions to our enterprise customers. We will be able to provide more complete end-to-end solutions.”
Hendra Wiratno
Knox Product Lead - Solution Architect, Samsung
“GovWare is an amazing platform for a lot of people to come in together. And I've met so many different customers, prospects and cybersecurity professionals who have a similar pain point. We were able to interact with a lot of people to understand the ground-level problems because in the end, everybody has the same goal. But what happens typically is that we are losing direction because cybercrime is so huge. We tend to forget the things that we need to do as part of our own security. So, I think GovWare really brings in the whole community together for us to be able to understand and do the value proposition accordingly, and I think it's a great opportunity for Cyberint to be here.”
Akanksha Harjai
Solutions Engineer, Cyberint
“Following our participation in the prestigious GovWare event in Singapore, I'm excited to announce that we are actively in discussions for potential partnerships in the dynamic Asian market. These discussions promise exciting possibilities for collaboration and growth, and we can't wait to see where they take us in the following days.”
Boran Duzgun
Co-Founder, ARKSOFT
“I think GovWare is one of the most important global cyber events because it brings together industry government and academia leaders to talk about the complex problems facing the profession… ISC2 has been involved with GovWare for about a decade, and we just have loved the evolution of GovWare. And one of the things that we value most about it is it provides us [with] an opportunity to connect with professionals from around the world. And the other thing that I've really noticed about it, particularly this year, is the conversations have been fantastic. They're not always easy conversations, but I think if you're trying to solve the kind of difficult challenges we have, you need to have tough conversations and GovWare provides the opportunity to do that.”
Clar Rosso
Chief Executive Officer, ISC2
“This is clearly the most important conference in the region, and it brings together a fantastic array of international experts, government officials, and non-government organisations. The GovWare Conference, with industry participation as well, is an exciting mix. It allows people to meet [those] who have things to share about the developing industry, the innovation... It's a place full of innovative companies.”
Juliette Wilcox CMG
Cybersecurity Ambassador, UK Department for Business and Trade
“GovWare this year had a lot of great panels with a lot of senior international speakers. The insights were really thought-provoking, and we got a good geographically diverse set of opinions… It's a great opportunity for networking and meeting old friends.”
Steve Ledzian
Chief Technology Officer, Mandiant - Google Cloud
“An important theme over this entire event has been trust, and this has been an opportunity for not only trust to be developed at individual levels in between organisations but really an important opportunity for all of us to think about how we build trust in a systemic way. One of the things that I think is important about GovWare is that digitalisation and cyber are often discussed in two very different communities. Cyber is a critical enabler for digitalisation. So, for it to be brought together into a single conversation, I think is an imperative.”
Jim Allen
Executive Vice President, Booz Allen Hamilton
“Coming to this conference and being able to interact with people from all over the world, it's a really valuable way in one week to cover a lot of ground. I [met] somebody from Australia, the United States, Singapore, all at one table. We're able to talk about regional and international topics altogether. That for me is super valuable. So, I think the GovWare Conference pulled together a really valuable group of folks.”
Brad Arkin
Senior Vice President, Chief Security and Trust Officer, Cisco
"From an audience profile standpoint, [GovWare] is fantastic because over the years, we've seen it progress from public sector to local, and today it's purely regional. It really goes hand in hand with Ensign's expansion strategy because being Asia's largest cybersecurity services firm, we want to be able to reach an audience profile that is very diverse across both private and public sectors. GovWare is a platform that allows us to achieve that."
Sherin Lee
Vice President, APAC Marketing, Brand & Communications, Ensign InfoSecurity
“A must you have to attend in cybersecurity in Asia. The opportunities with ministerial staff, people at different levels of the companies, and having CEOs coming to the booth, is something that only GovWare probably has the ability to get people down here.”
Ethan Seow
Chief Executive Officer, Centre for Cybersecurity (CFC) APAC
"If there's a conference I attend every fall, it's the GovWare Conference in Singapore. It's an exceptional conference. It's got all the right speakers and I always learn something there. So, it's been my privilege to attend and speak at the last five GovWare Conferences. For all the security professionals attending this, this is your opportunity to learn. The environment is changing very quickly. When you look at the speakers at GovWare, you're getting the best speakers in the world and it's providing international context. It's not United States-centric or European-centric. You have speakers from around the globe discussing and you're going to see common threads, commonalities between all the challenges we're addressing. So, the conference gives you a sense of camaraderie. We have to work together. We have to address the security challenges that we all have on a global basis. I can't think of a better way to spend your time than to attend the GovWare sessions."
Kevin Mandia
Chief Executive Officer, FireEye Mandiant
“GovWare has been a tremendous platform [that] interconnects customers, ecosystem partners and regulators together as a unified environment, whereby we come together to discuss and discover new technologies and solutions for our customers.”
Robin Seow
Head, Global Enterprise Marketing, Singtel
