Avepoint is a global digital workplace leader, providing suites of services including data security, data governance, and data modernisation. The AvePoint Confidence Platform addresses the most pressing data protection challenges facing customers of all sizes, industries, and geographies. Over 25,000 customers worldwide rely on the platform to address issues such as legacy and fragmented data, overexposed data, digital sprawl, and data loss and interruptions. AvePoint has one of the largest SaaS userbases across Microsoft, Google, Salesforce, and other collaboration environments.
In September last year, AvePoint became the first B2B SaaS stock to list on the Singapore Exchange (SGX) main board and the first company to be dual listed on both Nasdaq and SGX.

#1 How Does AvePoint Plan To Grow Its User Base While Navigating Competitive Pressures?
AvePoint offers a comprehensive, end-to-end solution across the lifecycle of data assets, including AI agents, integrating data security and governance seamlessly and deliver unified protection across major cloud providers like Microsoft, AWS, and Google. Our diverse customer base spans various industries and regions, and we expect it to grow as AI adoption accelerates the demand for data governance and security and increases cloud migration.
We are also investing ahead of the AI opportunity by advancing our offerings to address the challenges that come with AI adoption, such as advancing governance for agentic AI. Our tools give organisations visibility and lifecycle control over AI agents, enabling secure and scalable adoption with appropriate controls.

#2 How Has AI Changed AvePoint’s Business?
AI has accelerated demand for our data governance and security solutions, delivered through the AvePoint Confidence Platform, as organisations move from experimentation to scalable AI adoption, and AI introduces risks such as data exposure, compliance gaps and lack of trust. These risks apply to every company regardless of industry, location or size.
AI is also accelerating cloud migration, with more businesses moving to the cloud faster than ever before. This drives rapid data growth and new data management challenges, especially in unstructured data, which is where our focus lies.
In response, we are advancing governance for agentic AI as a first-class discipline, with platform capabilities that provide visibility and lifecycle control, unified protection across multi-SaaS and multi-cloud, and embedded responsible AI controls. This helps customers manage risk, improve operational efficiency, build trust and accountability, and move faster with confidence.
#3 How Is AvePoint Preparing For The Evolving Regulatory Landscape, Particularly Around AI Agents?
AvePoint’s origins lie in supporting regulated industries, making compliance with complex requirements integral to our approach. With each new regulatory wave—especially around data sovereignty, privacy and safety—we have refined our methods. As regulations now extend to AI and agentic AI, we apply this same expertise to emerging risks and demands.
The regulatory landscape is evolving rapidly and inconsistently across regions, complicating secure adoption. As AI brings new challenges—such as data exposure, compliance gaps and audit risks—governance must now be flexible and embedded into everyday business, not limited to regulated sectors alone.
To operationalise this, we launched AvePoint AgentPulse Command Center, an AI agent registry within the AvePoint Confidence Platform, helping organisations track agents in one place and improve security and cost efficiency through visibility into which agents are active, who is using them, and what sensitive files they can access.

#4 As AI Adoption Accelerates Does AvePoint See New Market Segments Opening Over The Next Year?
As AI adoption accelerates, demand is rising across customer segments, making data governance and security vital for organisations scaling AI. According to our recent The State of AI in 2025 Report, data security is the key barrier to wider AI deployment, with 75.1% of organisations reporting at least one AI-related security breach in the past year.
AvePoint addresses these challenges, including agentic AI governance through our AgentPulse Command Center. We also see growth opportunities as adjacent markets converge, expanding from core governance into areas like data integration and broader security posture management.
GenAI and LLMs enable us to query and process unstructured data—such as chats, emails, and documents—unlocking forward-looking insights traditional databases cannot. AvePoint is well positioned to help customers use these capabilities securely and responsibly.
#5 What Is AvePoint’s Biggest Risk Or Challenge In The Coming Years?
A key challenge for software companies is keeping up with the pace of AI and technology evolution. We stay close to customers and real-world use cases to guide innovation and anticipate how needs will change, so we continue building what organisations actually need as adoption scales.
AI adoption also raises governance and security stakes, including data exposure, compliance gaps and lack of auditability, which can delay rollouts. We are preparing by treating agentic AI governance as a core discipline and building governance-first controls into our platform, so organisations can deploy AI more safely and confidently.
This includes the launch of AvePoint AgentPulse Command Center to help organisations track AI agents in one place and strengthen security controls as agentic AI scales.
