Selangor's Tech Leap: IC Design Park Unveiled

The IC design sector in Malaysia is characterised by a dynamic mix of multinational corporations, local enterprises, and a growing number of startups. This thriving environment is bolstered by strong government support, robust infrastructure, and strategic initiatives aimed at positioning Malaysia as a global hub for semiconductor innovation.


One of the latest and most ambitious initiatives in this sector is the Malaysia Semiconductor Accelerator and IC Design Park: Selangor Hub, spearheaded by the Selangor State Government through its digital economy arm, SIDEC - the Selangor Information Technology & Digital Economy Corporation.

We go deeper into this groundbreaking initiative, on the vision behind the Selangor Hub, its strategic importance, and its expected impact on the Malaysian semiconductor landscape.
