KUALA LUMPUR (March 26): Cyberjaya tech hub developer Cyberview Sdn Bhd has named five digital demand-led start-ups for its 2021 Accelerator Programme.

In a statement, the firm said it remains committed to elevating local innovators and nurturing a vibrant tech ecosystem through the Cyberview Living Lab Accelerator (CLLA) programme.

Cyberview said the five start-ups are Roomah, Pandai, Synapse Innovation, LinkUp Smart Solutions and Move Robotic, which outpitched their peers before a panel of judges and were selected for the 15th cohort of the accelerator programme.

The firm said the CLLA programme provides a launchpad for start-ups and innovators to accelerate their business development and growth in Cyberjaya.

Cyberview managing director Mohd Najib Ibrahim said winning the digitalisation race requires companies to embrace a forward-looking, growth mindset and formulate a bold digital strategy at a rapid pace.

“Our accelerator programme offers start-ups opportunities as well as the necessary access to create an edge for themselves among what is already a competitive landscape.

“As a tech hub developer, we nurture tech start-ups to directly contribute to a more vibrant tech ecosystem here in Cyberjaya. This is also in line with the government’s recent MyDIGITAL initiative that looks at catalysing 5,000 start-ups in the next five years,” he said.

Cyberview said through the course of the programme, the five start-ups are given rent-free workspace at Colnnov8, a smart city collaborative space provided by Cyberview.

It said on top of opportunities to pilot their innovations with Cyberview and Cyberjaya stakeholders, they will enjoy industry mentoring and various value-added services worth over RM100,000.

Towards the end of the programme, the start-ups are given a platform to showcase their innovative products and solutions to relevant investors, corporate partners, government agencies and the media through Demo Day.

Meanwhile, Cyberview head of technology hub development division Shafinaz Salim said in the last eight years, the firm had nurtured 80 start-ups to advance innovations.
