Expand your networks, showcase your capabilities and identify potential partners and customers.

Global Victoria, in collaboration with Austrade, invites export-ready Victorian Tech companies with big data and AI solutions to join its technology trade mission to Malaysia (Malaysia Digital Expo), followed by Singapore for Big Data and AI World.

The Malaysia Digital Expo (MDX) is a yearly flagship event that is held in September – November (6 Weeks) by the Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC). MDEC is a government agency under the purview of the Malaysian Ministry of Digital.

This is the fourth physical trade mission that the Victorian Government has led to Big Data & AI World, and there were solid export outcomes achieved from our previous physical trade missions in 2019, 2022 and 2023.

With significant growing regional demand, the mission program also provides the opportunity for companies with capabilities across healthcare delivery, service availability and accessibility to network directly with the healthcare industries of both Malaysia and Singapore.
