Singapore welcomed one of the most significant Magento e-commerce events – Meet Magento Singapore 2019. Annually, this event brings together Magento developers, merchants, technology, and solution partners as well as various e-commerce enthusiasts. This year’s conference has not become an exception.
Meet Magento Singapore 2019 took place on 22 August at the majestic Marina Bay Sands, one of the most talked-about attractions in Asia. Annually, Meet Magento organizes this event in Singapore. This country is known as Asian Silicone Valley and remains a magnet to the tech giants from all over the world. Singapore is rightfully called the most innovative country in that part of the world. Its developed digital infrastructure, English as one of the official languages, and well-inforced strict intellectual property laws gain more and more attention from the IT companies.
Magento chooses Singapore as one of its prime locations for several reasons and one of them is this country lays at the crossroad of the largest Asian markets. Providing unique investment opportunities, Singapore is one of the global technology capitals.
Meet Magento Singapore 2019 was organized by Ranosys Technologies, a software company with the offices in Singapore, the UK, and the USA. It provides leading international businesses with IT solutions and different kinds of quality software testing services. Ranosys Technologies successfully arranged the event that allowed the people interested in Magento to get connected with the leading world’s experts and get an insight into Magento’s presence and future.
Together with the dragon dance show that has already become an annual tradition, Meet Magento Singapore 2019 was opened by the welcome speech of Sushma Vyas, COO at Ranosys Technologies.
