Bringing together nearly 100 representatives from local businesses and innovation organisations alongside 10 Chengdu technology companies, the event focused on artificial intelligence, new energy, the digital economy and technology commercialisation.

For Malaysian participants, the central opportunity was to identify technologies suited to local needs, connect with potential implementation partners and explore collaborations that could benefit businesses, entrepreneurs and the wider workforce.

Hosted by the Chengdu Municipal Science and Technology Bureau and organised by the Tianfu International Technology Transfer Centre, with support from the Southeast Asia Advanced Manufacturing Science and Technology Council, the programme featured industry presentations, technology showcases, partnership signings and targeted business discussions.

Putting Malaysian Industry Needs First

Technology cooperation delivers value when it responds to the needs of the market in which it will be used. Discussions at the event therefore provided an opportunity for Malaysian participants to share their priorities and assess how proposed solutions might work locally.

Mohd Safuan Mohd Zairi, Chief Ecosystem Officer of the Malaysian Research Accelerator for Technology and Innovation (MRANTI), outlined Malaysia’s industry landscape and cooperation opportunities. He highlighted the potential to connect technology with practical applications through local innovation platforms and advance commercialisation.

Chengdu representatives introduced their city’s innovation ecosystem, while a presentation on Shuangliu district covered its aviation hub, research resources and strengths in electronic information and energy equipment.

These exchanges helped Malaysian participants better understand the expertise available and identify potential partners for projects requiring complementary capabilities.

Exploring AI, Training and Digital Business Solutions

The company showcases introduced technologies with potential applications across Malaysian industries, from business services and recruitment to tourism, property and workforce training.

Chengdu Minto Technology presented its WorkBrain AI agent model and supporting platforms, development tools and interactive terminals. Its presentation covered applications in tourism, education and enterprise services, providing a basis for discussions on AI-enabled business solutions.

Chengdu Haotuo Technology showcased solutions combining extended reality (XR) and AI, including immersive experiences, disaster and safety training, industrial training and digital exhibition spaces. These technologies opened discussions on potential applications in employee learning, visitor experiences and interactive business environments.

Malaysian companies also brought their own solutions and partnership priorities to the table.

Carijob Holdings presented AI-enabled recruitment and human resource services, including talent matching, résumé analysis, recruitment communication and application tracking. The company expressed interest in connecting Chengdu’s technical expertise with Malaysian businesses, educational institutions and talent networks through recruitment technology pilots and talent development.

Defendian Global introduced an integrated AI governance and cybersecurity platform, highlighting needs relating to data protection, impersonation and fraud risks, and security awareness and skills training.

The exchanges placed Malaysian companies in an active role as technology partners, local solution providers and contributors to future project development.

Partnerships with a Local Application Focus

Two agreements signed during the event established specific directions for collaboration in Malaysia.

Chengdu Minto Technology and Malaysia’s Pro Tech Info Sdn Bhd signed a strategic cooperation agreement covering an OPC technology foundation. Planned activities include AI entrepreneur recruitment, training and certification, and AI agent project delivery within an OPC community.

For Malaysia, these proposed activities could create pathways for local entrepreneurs and practitioners to develop practical AI skills and explore opportunities in technology services.

Sichuan Jianshan Technology and Malaysia’s Omnico Solutions Sdn Bhd signed an agreement covering digital property sales software services and channel cooperation. The partnership aims to support the localisation and application of digital sales gallery solutions in Malaysia.

Its progress will depend on further technical planning and implementation arrangements, including adapting the solution to local business requirements.

Both agreements provide a starting point for collaboration, with the next stage focused on translating commitments into workable projects.

Building Connections Beyond the Event

More than 40 targeted business discussions took place, resulting in 11 preliminary expressions of cooperation interest. Participants explored product applications, technical partnerships, distribution channels and project implementation.

These conversations allowed Malaysian businesses to communicate their requirements directly, assess potential partners and identify areas for further technical engagement.

The ASEAN AI Centre of Excellence also expressed interest in Chengdu’s AI industry and indicated plans to organise a business delegation to China (Chengdu) in 2027 to explore technologies with potential relevance to Malaysia.

The longer-term value of these exchanges will be measured by their local outcomes: useful solutions, stronger skills, successful implementation and sustainable business relationships.

By combining Malaysian market knowledge and industry networks with complementary technology expertise, the partnerships explored in Kuala Lumpur could help local businesses develop new capabilities and commercial opportunities. Continued engagement will be essential to ensuring that cooperation delivers practical benefits for Malaysia’s businesses and talent.
