Wang added that while large enterprises traditionally lead digital transformation, AI now makes it accessible for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as well.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;SMEs love using new technology to improve operations, but in the past, digital transformation was too costly,&#8221; he noted. &#8220;AI changes this as it allows for faster transformation by leveraging external tools and capabilities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>New partnerships in <span class=\"xn-location\">Singapore<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<div class=\"PRN_ImbeddedAssetReference\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mma.prnasia.com\/media2\/2790339\/Event_group_photo.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mma.prnasia.com\/media2\/2790339\/Event_group_photo.jpg?p=medium600\" title=\"Beyondsoft\u2019s Singapore Innovation Lab was launched on Sept 18, at the company\u2019s Singapore office in South Beach Towers.
