Tower Industry Value Chain
Investment management advisors
TowerXchange serves the Southern and Southeast Asian tower community along two intersecting axes. On a horizontal axis we facilitate relationships between MNOs, towercos, investors and their advisers, aiding the structuring of deals and the transfer of assets. On a vertical axis, we examine the impact on, and opportunities for, the passive infrastructure supply chain, whether they sell to MNOs, towercos or through OEMs.
How TowerXchange ensure an audience of decision makers
Many of our clients complain that similar events have failed to deliver genuine decision makers; that won’t be the case at TowerXchange.
The TowerXchange Meetup is exclusively for Director, VP and C-level decision makers. If registrants are substituted, we will only accept replacement registrants of equal or greater seniority than those pre-approved.
Through our passive infrastructure focused journal publication and research, TowerXchange have cultivated relationships with 8,000 (at time of press) decision makers in emerging market towers, 84% of whom are Director, VP or C-level.
More importantly, we have personal relationships with the 200 or so individuals with genuine strategic and procurement decision making responsibilities. The TowerXchange Meetup has been requested and designed by the top decision makers in Southern and Southeast Asian towers, so you can be confident that the vast majority of those key contacts will be at the event.
Who will you meet

24 guaranteed, qualified introductions‘How to’ advice from proven practitioners
Your trusted community host and commentator
Dedicated to passive infrastructureDecision makers only An aid to shortlisting / receiving RFPs
3 structured networking sessions assemble participants in groups of 8, brought together by a common regional or topic matter interest, and arranged so each group includes 2 towercos, an MNO, investor, advisor, OEM or managed service provider, energy equipment and a static asset or RMS manufacturer
The main TowerXchange Meetup is supplemented by ‘how to’ workshops, tackling topics from how to structure a tower transaction to the implications of 3G and 4G, while the business leaders from MNOs, towercos and investors will debate hot topics in unmissable panel discussions
The TowerXchange Meetup draws on the credibility, original research and comprehensive relationships with Asian telecoms infrastructure decision makers who read our renowned journal
While other events increasingly focus on devices and VAS, TowerXchange maintains a laser-beam focus on passive infrastructure
Access to the TowerXchange Meetup is by invitation-only. Our 200 attendees are vetted for decision making authority (Director, VP and C-level only), and the ratio of buyers to sellers is carefully managed
The TowerXchange expo features the best in passive infrastructure equipment and services. Who’s who panel sessions introduce the leading vendors to our audience of buyers, helping them shortlist companies to receive RFPs
What makes TowerXchange Meetups uniqueJoin the TowerXchange community at our exclusive executive retreat in Singapore where our unique, networking-driven “unconference” will facilitate tower transaction deal-making, accelerate buyers’ partner selection due diligence, and provide passive infrastructure equipment and service providers with dozens of highly qualified new prospects.

Respecting confidentiality yet revealing what’s really going on
Enjoy networking with 200 VIPs
Tower transactions are highly confidential, so the TowerXchange Meetup is held under “Chatham House Rule” and our unique roundtables, private meeting space and informal receptions will enable you to discreetly discuss and advance strategic partnerships
Thanks to its world-class business environment and vibrant cultural landscape, Singapore is the ideal location for executives to meet and enjoy the exclusive atmosphere of our Meetup. Easily accessible from anywhere in the region, Singapore is served by one of the best airports in the world and presents a variety of elegant
The Mobile Asia Expo, CommunicAsia Summit and Asia LTE Conference are great events for general networking but they are mainly focused on active infrastructure, VAS and devices, not towers and passive infrastructure. In fact, none of the leading passive infrastructure providers active in Asia exhibited at these events.
The TowerXchange Meetup is 100% devoted to passive infrastructure. It’s 100% decision maker level: only Director, VP and C-level are permitted to attend. And our ratio of buyers to sellers is carefully controlled.

For our exhibitors, “all booths are created equal” at TowerXchange – you won’t be swallowed up into the shadow of the huge exhibits of deep-pocketed big brands – at TowerXchange everyone gets the same size turnkey booth, which means vendors are shortlisted to receive RFPs purely on the basis of their ability to meet buyer requirements. The TowerXchange Meetup has been designed to incur low logistics costs – there’s no need to ship anything to the event – all the materials you will need will fit in the hold of the plane you fly in on.
