Marketing

At APAC Business Standard, we look at marketing as something more layered than campaigns and clicks. Across the Asia-Pacific, marketing isn’t one-size-fits-all—it shifts with culture, language, behavior, and the pace of local change. In some places, it’s a community-led rollout that hinges on local trust. In others, it’s a long-game strategy refined through years of listening and learning. We turn the spotlight on the people behind those efforts—the decisions, the missteps, and the real process of figuring it out. 

What interests us isn’t always the loudest voice in the room. It’s the message that stayed with someone. The moment a founder spoke directly to their audience and it clicked. A shift in approach that finally opened a new market. We don’t follow trends for the sake of it. What draws us in are the builders—founders, and operators across APAC who are solving real problems, staying the course, and finding their own pace through complex markets. Sometimes the progress is loud. Often, it isn’t. But it matters. And that’s what we’re here to share.
