Participate in the EUROCHAM Malaysia Digital Economy Survey!

The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the process of digital transformation – from micro-enterprises to multinational conglomerates, businesses in every sector and every region of the world are becoming increasingly dependent on information and communication technologies (ICTs) and a secure, stable, and trusted Internet to carry out their daily operations.

With this survey, EUROCHAM Malaysia and valued Bilateral/Associate Chambers seek to measure and understand the general sentiment of the digital approach and digital maturity of European and Malaysian organisations operating in Malaysia.

EUROCHAM Malaysia CEO, Mr. Sven Schneider, and team had a very productive and captivating meeting with one of our corporate partners Futurise Malaysia!
