A Positive Yet Guarded Outlook on Global Markets and Demand with EIU’s John Marrett

Despite the uncertainty of global elections, shifting policies, and layoffs in the tech community, the industry outlook is positive, suggests John Marrett, Director of Financial Risk for the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU). In this episode of Beyond Distribution with GTDC, he joins host Frank Vitagliano to discuss a variety of factors impacting world and regional markets and IT demand. 

Marrett will share his expertise on this topic and deeper insight into the Asia Pacific IT markets in a keynote discussion at the GTDC APJ Summit in Singapore on November 19th. From the impact of global elections and financial policies to the outlook for new technologies and business model changes, he will highlight the issues and opportunities that tech executives should focus on in 2025 and beyond.       

How will new leaders affect the IT community? Will growing demand for AI and cybersecurity drive faster technology refresh cycles?
