We break down the opportunities and challenges in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines and Thailand, discussing everything from market maturity and consumer behaviour to localisation, digital wallets and recurring payments. We also explore why community continues to outperform technology alone, why operators need to think beyond simply importing a successful model from another country, and what brands should consider before expanding into new markets. Essential listening for anyone operating or investing in the region. Visit Ezypay . SHOW SPONSORS Our sponsors are helping us to raise the standards of Asia's fitness industry.
