In the heart of Cyberjaya, a dynamic platform called Connectd is transforming the landscape for entrepreneurs across Malaysia. This unique networking initiative brings together business owners from diverse industries and government agencies under one roof, fostering connections and catalyzing growth opportunities. Since its inception, Connectd has flourished, organizing four successful gatherings that have collectively attracted over 1,012 participants. More significantly, these events have facilitated potential investments totaling RM12.4 million through engaging pitching sessions that empower entrepreneurs to showcase their ventures.
The ethos of Connectd stems from addressing a common gap among entrepreneurs – the tendency to operate within familiar circles or small groups, inadvertently limiting growth potential. Recognizing the power of networking in expanding business horizons, Connectd provides a vibrant platform where startups, growing enterprises, and established companies can converge. Here, over 200 entrepreneurs, whether from similar or different industries, converge to exchange ideas, business cards, and explore collaboration prospects. Moreover, Connectd goes beyond mere networking; it offers enriching sessions where participants gain insights from business veterans and subject matter experts. From business sharing to fundraising pitching techniques, Connectd equips entrepreneurs with practical tools to secure funding and propel their ventures forward.
