What do DuitNow, MyDigital ID, PADU, and e-invoicing have in common? They’re all part of Malaysia’s Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI). In today’s digital landscape, designing a comprehensive DPI platform is essential for a nation’s successful digital transformation.

Ernst & Young Consulting (EY) released their Digital Public Infrastructure report in June, highlighting how DPI facilitates data exchanges, creates digital identities, and enables seamless financial transactions.

Joining us to delve into these developments is Shankar Kanabiran, Malaysia Deputy Consulting Leader & Partner at EY Consulting. We’ll explore the foundational factors needed for effective and trusted DPI, its role in national digital transformation, and the key challenges to implementing a robust DPI strategy. Tune in for an in-depth discussion on how Malaysia can build its digital future.
