Riding on strong industry-government linkages and a robust digital ecosystem, venture capital and startup ecosystem players in Malaysia are upbeat about increased capital inflows in 2018.
Speaking at DEALSTREETASIA’s Asia PE/VC Summit 2017 held in Singapore recently, Norhizam Abdul Kadir, VP, Malaysia, Digital Economy Corporation, said, “Malaysia is doing pretty well as compared to other markets in Southeast Asia. We are about 32 million people compared to Indonesia which is 10x more, so it is going to be quite difficult to compare on market consumption, but, when you come to digital ecosystem, the landscape is pretty robust here.”
