Malaysia approves 107 new digital firms with RM13.1bil investments in Q1

KUALA LUMPUR: The government approved 107 new companies under the Malaysia Digital (MD) framework in the first quarter of 2025, with a combined investment value of RM13.1 billion. Digital Minister Gobind Singh Deo, speaking at the UK-Malaysia Digital Gateway Forum in London, said the investments are expected to generate 4,199 new jobs over the next five years. He noted that the sectoral breakdown of these approvals reflects Malaysia's diverse and future-focused digital economy. Global business services led with 49 companies, projecting a revenue of RM6.8 billion, followed by infotech with 51 companies, bringing in an estimated RM1.9 billion in revenue and the digital creative content sector saw seven companies approved, with a projected revenue of RM500 million. The top three activity areas among these MD-approved companies were data centre and cloud services (28 companies); artificial intelligence (AI) (23 companies) and global business services (15 companies). "These figures are a clear indication of Malaysia's commitment to becoming a thriving, future-ready digital hub that is open to international partnerships and poised for high-value, sustainable growth, he said in a statement. Gobind added that the country's ibrant digital ecosystem is underpinned by recent regulatory reforms, including the Cyber Security Act 2024, Data Sharing Act 2024 and the establishment of the National AI Office (NAIO), as well as cutting-edge infrastructure and a robust talent pipeline. Gobind is in London for the London Tech Week, which serves as a platform for Malaysia to gather insights and forge partnerships in emerging fields such as AI governance, smart cities and digital sustainability. The forum, co-organised by the Malaysian Digital Economic Corporation (MDEC) and the British Malaysian Chamber of Commerce (BMCC), brought together over 80 UK-based technology companies and 23 Malaysian firms, facilitating direct engagement and partnership opportunities. As part of the event's objectives, the Digital Ministry aims to identify UK tech companies that are keen to expand in Southeast Asia. Gobind invited United Kingdom (UK) technology businesses to collaborate in shaping a dynamic digital future in the country. He underscored Malaysia's position as a strategic regional hub for innovation, digital investment and sustainable technology advancement. "Malaysia is open for innovation. Our vision is anchored on three critical enablers - world-class infrastructure, trusted data governance and institutional trust. "These are the foundations that make Malaysia a prime destination for high-value tech investment in the region," he said. The minister also extended an invitation to UK partners to join upcoming flagship events including the Asean Malaysia AI Summit in August 2025 and the Smart City Expo Kuala Lumpur in September 2025.

Jonathan Anderson will now lead Dior men's, women's and couture – can he do it?

In a historic, if long-awaited, move, luxury goods behemoth LVMH named Jonathan Anderson creative director of Dior for womenswear, menswear and couture, making him the first designer to unite all sides of the brand since Christian Dior himself. Anderson is 'one of the creative talents of his generation', said Bernard Arnault, CEO of LVMH, in announcing the news – which also upends long-standing LVMH practice. Since 2001, when LVMH transformed the Dior men's line from a license to an integral part of the house, it has been conventional wisdom that no one designer can manage the burdens and pressures of both menswear and womenswear. Such a role involves creating 10 different collections a year for what is now estimated to be a US$9bil (approximately RM38.2bil) brand. Daring to rewrite those rules and concentrate all the power in the hands of a single designer is a risk for both brand and individual. But it also underscores the current precarious state of the industry, which has seen a broad slowdown in sales thanks to global political and economic unrest, and the general belief that a shake-up was needed. Anderson's appointment qualifies. It is the final step in what has been one of the most-drawn out succession dramas in modern fashion history as well as another move in an unprecedented shifting of fashion's creative landscape, with 17 different brands naming new designers in 2025 – four of them at LVMH alone. A file photo shows a model walking the runway during the Loewe Spring/Summer 2016 show as part of Paris Fashion Week. Photo: Digital Catwalk/NurPhoto via AFP Rumours about the Dior change began percolating through the industry in September, and picked up steam in January when Kim Jones, then artistic director of Dior menswear, resigned. Read more: Jonathan Anderson named women's creative director at Dior in major fashion move Anderson was named to the men's post in April somewhat unceremoniously – Arnault dropped the news in a general shareholder meeting before it had been officially announced, but Maria Grazia Chiuri remained artistic director for womenswear. Recently, she held a Dior Cruise show in Rome – and two days later the brand announced she was leaving. 'A change in creative leadership brings a fresh opportunity to reinvigorate the brand,' wrote Luca Solca, luxury analyst for Bernstein, in a note after Chiuri left. Anderson, 40, famously ambitious and charming, has been a part of LVMH since 2013, when he was named designer of Loewe, then a little known Spanish leather goods house the group had bought in 1996. Over 11 years, Anderson transformed Loewe from largely irrelevant to one of the hottest brands in fashion, with annual revenues estimated at US$2bil (RM8.5bil). He proved expert at balancing the kind of high-concept runway collections that create buzz and boggle the eye with commercial products. On the one hand, he would show dresses with cars in their hems or tailcoats microbeaded to resemble classic country house tapestries; on the other, he created accessories like the Loewe Puzzle bag that became classics, and internet-friendly stilettos with sunny side up eggs trapped under the point of the heel. Both provided catnip for celebrities seeking a bit of edge, with his Loewe circle including Josh O'Connor, Ayo Edebiri, Greta Lee and Daniel Craig, who used a controversial Loewe ad campaign to shed his James Bond stereotype. As if in acknowledgment of his achievement, in 2024 Loewe was the chief sponsor of the Met Gala, and Anderson stood in the receiving line next to Anna Wintour – who was wearing an embroidered Loewe tailcoat over her Loewe dress. Still, Anderson showed signs of restlessness, partnering with director Luca Guadagnino, another creator who bridges the worlds of art house and pop culture, to design the costumes for two of Guadagnino's films, Challengers and Queer . Read more: A look back at Jonathan Anderson's star-studded legacy of dressing celebrities Despite such a seemingly bountiful creative output, uniting both sides of Dior will be a very public challenge. While Anderson had years to find his groove at Loewe (where he has been replaced by Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez of Proenza Schouler), he will not be granted the same grace period at Dior, which is both the cornerstone of the LVMH empire and responsible for an estimated 20% of the fashion and leather goods revenues of the group. Famously the pet brand of Arnault, it was publicly identified as an underperformer in the 2024 financial results by Cecile Cabanis, the LVMH chief financial officer. The pressures of designing for Dior were blamed by former artistic director John Galliano for the addictions that caused his own personal implosion in 2011, as well as his dismissal from LVMH – and he was only in charge of womenswear. Anderson will be expected to reverse that direction starting with his first show, to be held in June during the menswear season; his first womenswear show will take place in October. He has put his namesake brand, JW Anderson, on hold, the better to focus on Dior. In the news release, he called getting the job 'a great honour'. Whether it is an anomaly or a paradigm shift remains to be seen. – ©2025 The New York Times Company This article originally appeared in The New York Times.
