The programs served as a valuable platform for participants to engage, expand their reach, showcase technology companies from Malaysia, and facilitate business growth opportunities towards driving the digital economy in ASEAN.
The programs also witnessed a significant milestone with exchanging of Memorandums of Understanding (MoU) between Malaysian and Indonesian companies.
Malaysian companies include Faszz Technology (M) Sdn Bhd; TRB Ventures Sdn Bhd (MHub); Verofax Asia Sdn Bhd and PT The Lorry Online Indonesia.
Meanwhile, Indonesian partners include PT Envy Tbk; PT. Aksi Visitama (Tada); PT. Marega Kernel Teknologi and PT Mitrausaha Indonesia Grup (Modalku).
The MoU exchanges are to further solidify the collaboration between the two nations.

Meanwhile, MDEC has recently launched MDEC Horizon Publication, a comprehensive and strategic publication that offers invaluable insights and information on Malaysia’s digital landscape.
The publication serves as the go-to reference for global and local stakeholders seeking reliable data and informed perspectives.
