From regional conversations to Malaysian talent on the global stage, BEYOND Expo 2026 in Macau gave us many moments to be proud of.

Under the theme “AI: Digital to Physical”, the event brought together leaders, investors, startups, policymakers, and ecosystem builders to explore how artificial intelligence is moving into real-world applications across industries.

Cradle was proud to be part of the conversation through Harmender Singh, SVP of Group Business Development & Innovation Advisory, whose speaking engagements took place across two days, from 28 to 29 May, at the BGlobal Summit and Global Investment Summit.

Additionally, Cradle was invited to a closed-door session—the Shenzhen-Macao Science and Technology Industry Cooperation and Exchange Promotion Conference, where we had the opportunity to present our role as Malaysia’s focal-point agency for the startup ecosystem and share how we support founders, innovation, and ecosystem growth.

We are also proud to celebrate the Malaysian team who won 2nd place during the BEYOND Hack Day in Macau:

Sim Hong Bing
Leong Shi Wei
Maxine Lai Mei Sin
Ken Ooi Mo Herng

Their achievement reflects the quality of Malaysian talent and the value of giving our innovators access to regional platforms, networks, and opportunities.

Congratulations to the team, and thank you to everyone we connected with in Macau.

We look forward to building more bridges for Malaysian startups across the region.
