It’s All About Digital Now

Smartphones have truly changed the way we do things.

With this, the Malaysian government’s introduction to Digital Free Trade Zone (DFTZ) and the setting of the world’s first Alibaba hub outside of China in Malaysia, marks the exciting progress for Malaysian entrepreneurs.

Recently, we attended a Digital Seminar organized by MaGIC (Malaysian Global Innovation & Creativity Centre), located in Cyberjaya. MaGIC was launched on the 27th of April 2014 by former American President Barack Obama with YAB Prime Minister Najib Razak. MaGIC aims to build a sustainable entrepreneurship ecosystem for Malaysian entrepreneurs and to act as an incitement for creativity and innovation for the nation. Thus far, MaGIC has provided many platforms for discussions, conferences and events that allow for generating ideas and capacity-building initiatives.
