A total of 26 new MTCs were onboarded to the programme today, where 14 of them from the manufacturing sector and the remaining 12 from the services sector.
“As we have MTCs with different levels of growth participating in Wave 9, we believe our platform accommodates the requirements of companies at all stages of development. We are confident that this diverse mix of MTCs will create a thriving and dynamic environment for cooperation, education, and progress, which will benefit not just individual companies but also the Malaysian business landscape,” said Datuk Mohd Mustafa Abdul Aziz, Chief Executive Officer of MATRADE.
This year, the implementation of MTCDP will be aligned with the core values of “Malaysia MADANI”, particularly sustainability and innovation.
“MTCs are the leader in our domestic supply chain. By adopting MADANI’s framework into, they will emerge as caring, compassionate and respectful organisations, especially in guiding Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) as their vendors. MTCs will also be able to contribute towards socio-economic growth including job creation and undertake corporate social responsibilities (CSR) activities within local communities,” he added.
MTCDP continues to be a high impact development programme of MATRADE, with major aim to accelerate the export growth of Mid-Tier Companies in Malaysia, to be the regional and global champions. Development of these companies is part and parcel of a holistic approach, where MATRADE identifies potential MSMEs at the early stage to be new exporter, growing them to become Mid-Tier status and later, scale up to be the large corporations.
MATRADE is seeking more potential MTCs to be part of this exciting journey, towards developing their export capabilities. Recruitment for each wave is open all year round and applicants will be shortlisted during the Q4 of every year.
