Empowering Entrepreneurs: The E3 Hubs Story

Today, we’re in conversation with Professor Andrew Wong, CEO of E3 Hubs Sdn. Bhd, a man with over a quarter of a century in entrepreneurship, and an advocate for the development of and nurturing of SMEs and startups. In a world still reeling from the impact of a global pandemic, businesses across Malaysia are navigating through the challenges of inflation and political volatility, searching for a foothold to stabilise and grow.

E3 Hubs stands as a beacon of support for these businesses, providing incubation, mentorship and a thriving community network aimed at business upscaling. From leading MAD Incubator, which played a pivotal role in the growth of numerous tech startups, to steering E3 Hubs towards its goal of empowering 50,000 members, Andrew’s journey is one of resilience, innovation and an unyielding commitment to the entrepreneurial spirit. Let’s explore the insights and experience of a man who’s at the forefront of fostering entrepreneurial success in Malaysia’s dynamic business landscape.
