|
| Thursday, 4 June 2020 (9am-10am) |

As countries around the globe are adjusting to the new normal due to the global coronavirus pandemic, pushing for the acceleration of digital transformation across all facets of business and life, governments are also fast-tracking digital economic growth amidst fear of economic depression post-Covid-19. Malaysia, renown as a location of choice for many Fortune 500 and digital tech companies, is well-positioned to be the heart of Digital ASEAN, with its dynamic ecosystem, resilient and talented workforce, and robust digital infrastructure.
In light of the Covid-19 pandemic, the World Bank is now revisiting their 2018 report on Malaysia’s Digital Economy. If you are a tech entrepreneur eyeing the Malaysian digital landscape, a C-suite of a digital tech and services multinational company looking for expansion opportunities, or a member of the general public interested in digital public policy developments, join us in this 1-hour webinar with experts from the World Bank and Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC).
