Asia-Pacific Digital Transformation Project
With support from Google.org.
Infoxchange, with support from Google.org, delivered a first-of-its-kind digital capability uplift project for not-for-profits across the Asia-Pacific region to improve digital capabilities and enable participants to use technology to solve local development challenges.
More than 47 NFPs across 12 locations, including Australia, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Philippines, South Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam, participated in the program.
Our research report of the region found that:
- 1 in 6 organisations experienced a cyber security incident
- Only 50% of NGO staff were confident in using technology in their roles
- 62% do not have a system that enables them to understand their impact
We delivered intensive 1:1 digital transformation plans, an inclusive digital capability webinar program that saw more than 4,600 registrations, and the inaugural APAC Digital Transformation Summit. All of which enhanced collaboration and learning with NFP peers and regional technology experts.
The Asia-Pacific Digital Transformation Summit
In June 2024, we hosted the Asia-Pacific Digital Transformation Summit at Google HQ in Singapore. Over 60 NFP delegates joined to collaborate, share and be inspired. The summit involved speakers from Google, the Singapore Ministry of Communications and Information, Tech for Good Institute, AVPN, the Asian Development Bank and more.
Delegates participated in workshops collaborating and sharing their digital transformation journeys, sector challenges and opportunities for innovative technology, such as AI, to advance their impact.
Maggie Johnson, Global Head and Vice President at Google.org announced that Google.org will provide an additional USD$1.5M to support Infoxchange to further impact in the region through a new program that would help selected organisations harness artificial intelligence and other innovative digital solutions to amplify their impact.
