Asia-Pacific, 2026 – cbs brought business and technology leaders together through ONE.Ascent, a regional event series focused on the priorities shaping enterprise transformation across Asia-Pacific.
Held across Shanghai, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Singapore and Tokyo, the four regional editions explored how organisations can modernise their enterprise landscapes, manage transformation risks and build stronger foundations for an AI-driven future.


Regional Dialogue for the Agentic Enterprise
Although every market has its priorities, the ONE.Ascent highlights a common purpose; helping organisations modernise their enterprise landscape, reducing transformation risk and enabling more intelligent, adaptive operations.
- In Shanghai, approaches to system transformation in terms of acquisition and mergers.
- In Australia across Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, bridging finance leaders to reimagine the future of finance.
- In Singapore, it’s not just upgrading global systems but it’s about managing structural change, risk management, and long-term agility.
- In Tokyo, addressing how de-risking became a priority for enterprise transformation.
By connecting these foundations, the agentic enterprise represents the next opportunity of enterprise transformation, where AI-powered agents support decision-making, automate processes and coordinate activities across the organisation.

From Shanghai to Tokyo, ONE.Ascent Asia-Pacific brought these conversations closer to regional leaders with the help and support by our partners; SAP, Amazon Web Services (AWS), SoftwareONE, Boston Consulting Group (BCG), Kyndryl, Neptune Software, SimpleMDG and Growin Partners.
