More than 77 percent of this investment would be concentrated in Japan, Malaysia, Australia, India, and Indonesia, the report said, with investment driven by AI adoption, cloud expansion, and digital transformation across APAC.
Japan alone accounts for nearly a quarter of projected capital requirements for the region.
