KUALA LUMPUR: I-Bhd has announced the opening of the AI World Experience Centre at i-City Sales Gallery, touted as a large-scale immersive showcase of artificial intelligence and humanoid

robotics.

In a statement, the company said the centre offers visitors first-hand exposure to how AI will be embedded across future residential, commercial, wellness, and lifestyle environments within i-City.

The centre, developed in collaboration with leading humanoid robotics firm AGIBOT, feature 100 humanoid robots.

“Artificial intelligence can feel distant to many people, Robotics changes that. When people can see intelligence in motion and interact with it directly, AI becomes easier to understand, less intimidating, and far more engaging,” said Datuk Eu Hong Chew, Director of I-Bhd.

I-Bhd chairman Tan Sri Lim Kim Hong added that the AI Experience Centre serves as a foundation for the broader vision of transforming i-City into a technology-enabled urban ecosystem.

"Supported by a strong remaining GDV and a growing investment property base, we believe AI World will enhance asset value, strengthen recurring income, and position I-Bhd at the forefront of intelligent urban development in

Malaysia.” 

Positioned as both a public attraction and an immersive educational platform, the Experience Centre invites the

public especially students and young learners to engage with artificial intelligence through hands-on experiences. 

Through interactive exhibits and live demonstrations, the Experience Centre also reflects I-Bhd’s broader strategy of integrating technology into everyday urban living, ranging from smart facilities management and hospitality services to wellness support and intelligent environments, reinforcing i-City’s positioning as a technology-led township, said the statement.

The  public can now preview the AI World Experience Centre, with expanded exhibits and programmes planned in future phases. 

The official launch of AI World is scheduled for Jan 13, 2026.
