What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

According to Forrester's 2027 Asia Pacific predictions, one in three large APAC enterprises could have at least 10 employee-built shadow AI agents for every officially sanctioned agent. This rapid proliferation, combined with embedded SaaS capabilities, is expected to outpace institutional controls and create unmanaged risk and technical debt. Forrester states that in 2027, the defining imperative for APAC leaders will be shifting their focus from AI deployment speed to effective control and governance.
