Commonwealth Bank of Australia, Telstra, Capital A, Standard Chartered Bank, and DBS Bank Join List of Marquee Brands to Adopt Neo4j
SINGAPORE, April 25, 2022 — Neo4j®, the world’s leading graph data platform, has experienced more than 100 percent growth across Asia Pacific over the past year. Accelerated demand comes from a wide range of industries, including financial services, travel, retail, public sector, and healthcare organisations seeking to solve their most complex problems.
The company’s business benefits are further bolstered by a commissioned Forrester Consulting Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study on Neo4j’s graph data platform, which demonstrated more than 400 percent return on investment over three years for a composite organisation.
Hundreds of organisations around the region rely on Neo4j for mission-critical applications, and many thousands more experiment, prototype, and deploy Neo4j’s expanding portfolio of cloud services. Notable customers include the Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA), Telstra, Capital A, Standard Chartered Bank, DBS Bank, Starhub, Amity Thailand, Tabcorp, Woodside Energy, PlayHQ, and leading government agencies.
Neo4j continued to grow in popularity as Asia Pacific’s most widely deployed graph data platform, driven by customers’ desire to seek solutions to complex, previously unsolvable problems impacting their operations, innovations, and bottom line.
Other momentum drivers include increased adoption of Neo4j AuraDB™, a fully managed service that reduces friction as intelligent applications shift to the cloud, as well as the adoption of Neo4j Graph Data Science™, a complete toolset for data scientists to apply graph algorithms for more effective machine learning, improved data analysis, and better predictions.
Reflecting on the past year, Nik Vora, Neo4j Asia Pacific Vice President, attributed the company’s performance to several key factors.
“2021 was a stellar year for Neo4j in Asia Pacific with more than 100 percent growth – and we’re only just scratching the surface of what’s possible,” said Vora. “With Neo4j, they have a powerful way to ‘connect the dots’ and uncover relationships between data points that traditional data infrastructure has failed to deliver.
“Neo4j is being successfully adopted in all industries in Asia Pacific to overcome a variety of pain points – from fraud detection at some of the biggest financial services organisations and law enforcement agencies to building more resilient manufacturing and supply chains”.
The momentum has attracted top talent from companies such as IBM, Microsoft, Nokia, and SingTel in Shanghai, Shenzhen, Bangalore, Pune, Mumbai, and Jakarta. Functional areas that have expanded the most include technology, sales, marketing, and partnerships. Notable Asia Pacific appointments include Kimberly Chen, people strategy and talent acquisition lead, Daniel Ng, marketing vice president, and Hubert Ng, cloud channels director.
