ISKANDAR PUTERI: Large-scale development and increased foreign investments in Johor are the focus of Malaysian Technology Development Corp (MTDC) in organising the third installment of Road2Growth (R2G) Southern Region this year.

Chief executive officer Mohammad Hazani Hassan said Johor’s rising stature as a strong economic state is one of the reasons MTDC is eager to introduce its technology, innovative solutions in Industry 4.0 (IR 4.0) and digitalisation to the participants at R2G Southern Region.

“Over the past few years, the growth in Johor has been phenomenal with large-scale development and increased foreign investments making Johor their port of call.

“We at MTDC highly encourage entrepreneurs, especially those from Johor, to seize this unique opportunity to further expand your business,” he told reporters after officiating at the R2G Southern Region yesterday.

He said IR 4.0 has brought major technological advances, changing and diversifying the way people live, work and interact.

“This is where MTDC’s R2G programme will address the possibilities and potential businesses during its sharing session and networking activities conducted by our team and partners,” he said. — Bernama
