Driving Cross-Border AI Innovation: GenAI Fund Partner at India–Malaysia Roundtable🤝

It was a pleasure for our Partner, Denning Tan, to join a private roundtable discussion with His Excellency Jitin Prasada, Minister of State of India for ICT, Semiconductors, Commerce, and Industry — alongside key Malaysian AI and tech leaders on September 26, 2025.

The discussion explored new opportunities for AI collaboration between India and Malaysia, particularly in areas such as innovation, talent development, and cross-border digital partnerships.

During the session, Denning shared about the GenAI Open Innovation programme in ASEAN — and anecdotally, the growing participation of Indian startups and founders joining the programme. Several have already made it to the shortlist of curated startup solutions selected to collaborate with partner enterprises in Malaysia, showcasing the increasing cross-border synergy in AI innovation.

We believe that Indian startups will continue to make headway into ASEAN with B2B AI solutions that address real enterprise challenges and drive digital transformation at scale.

A special thanks to Warren Leow for championing the startup and AI ecosystem in Malaysia, and for inviting GenAI Fund to the private table discussions with His Excellency Jitin Prasada.

We’re encouraged by the growing connection between both nations’ AI ecosystems — and look forward to driving more initiatives that connect startups, enterprises, and investors across the region.
