For 25 years, the Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC) has been driving Digital Investments into Malaysia, primarily through the MSC Malaysia initiative. This has led to the catalysation and growth of Malaysia's technology and ICT industry through the presence of global technology companies in Malaysia, many which are still thriving here, including Dell. MDEC's CEO Mahadhir Aziz together with TS Koay, Senior Director, Dell Digital and General Manager, Dell Cyberjaya join us as they reflect on their success and unfold their plans for the future.
