On Track For RM100M? How High-Tech Cables Power Swift Bridge

Founded in 2012, Swift Bridge Technologies is a Malaysian company that makes high-tech cables used in telecommunications, semiconductors, medical devices, and even space tech. These aren’t just ordinary cables, they’re high-frequency RF (radio frequency) cables that enable ultra-fast and reliable connections, especially in industries like 5G, aerospace, and advanced testing equipment.

The company recently secured investment from Kumpulan Modal Perdana (KMP), a Malaysian Ministry of Finance venture capital firm, to drive R&D expansion, next-generation RF cables up to 145GHz, and local production growth.

In this episode of Open For Business, Dato Chong Soon Kheng, Co-Founder and CEO of Swift Bridge Technologies, shares how the company built its niche in Asia’s semiconductor supply chain, its plans to scale to RM100 million revenue, and its strategic expansion into EV charging stations. We also dive into their role in the global RF industry, key growth drivers like 6G, and how Swift Bridge is positioning itself against global competitors.
