Global Technology Hub
Blueprint
INTRODUCTION
The Global Technology Hub Blueprint study was commissioned to carve out the technology strength in Malaysia,
to be strategically developed and to strengthen its core competency for innovative technology development
within Cyberjaya. The development of specific technology focus is to consolidate key resources and distinctive
capabilities of Cyberjaya, for developing new opportunities to invoke and foster innovative values in technology as
a driver for the country. The study undertook benchmarking of the best technology parks and start-up ecosystems
across the globe that played a pivotal role in the success of their own technology driven economies. This strategic
approach brings to light a broader perspective in using global practices to work with various agencies across the
ecosystem. This includes collaborative industry partnership and commercialisation in the technology value chain
of Malaysia. The blueprint provides a conceptual framework to evaluate the impact of innovation and technology
at a global level; to benchmark local technology integration competency and a yardstick for resources efficiency to
develop a competitive edge for achieving the digital aspirations of Malaysia

towards year 2020. Technology is a majortaking the centre stage in some of the
contributor and key driver to the nationalleading economies and enterprises today.
In the economic sense, technology have become a new form of asset class,
equivalent to data or oil. The competitive advantage for many countries has shifted
towards process technology which are man-made and in replacement of natural
comparative advantage. That is the power and opportunities driven in this era of
technology and internet
As the government puts in place many digital measures under the New Economic
Model, Economic Transformation Plan, Government Transformation Plan and Digital
Malaysia to place Malaysia firmly on the global digital map, we must ensure that we
have a complete ecosystem that continues to progress in tandem with our national
digital agenda. With this strategic injection of push to our national initiatives, it
realigns our national initiatives to a leaner and stronger approach to work inclusively
across all agencies. By doing so, our country will keep in pace with the much
competitive global economy.
FOREWORD
Economic growth will be more targeted with efficient use of
resources by converting to technology-led industries in
sectors that Malaysia has the competitive advantage.
Development of a Global Technology Hub into a vibrant,
productive and liveable city comparable to major cities in the
world is critical in our mission to attract talent, businesses and
investments to Malaysia. This investment in technology
advancement will set an example for Malaysia’s very own
Global Technology Hub to be replicated for sharing of
economic benefits in other urban cities to create a robust and
vibrant community in line with the current global environment
and national priorities.
initiated for pushing technology and the idea of a Global
Technology Hub in Cyberjaya is timely and brings new focus
to technology for Malaysia.
To develop Malaysia with a mission towards a progressive
and high-income nation, we must consistently keep our sights
set on making sure we deliver and occasionally adjusting as
needed to achieve it. Our past strategies of driving economic
development needs to be consistently injected with strategic
approaches to keep the economic development resilient and
the determination drive forging. This collaborative study
I have full confidence that the Global Technology Hub
blueprint will bring about positive changes which will benefit
all Malaysians. The Government and Ministry of Finance is
committed to ensure delivery of goals underpinned by the
blueprint and I am personally committed. Let’s take this
journey with a mighty stride as a nation – together for
Malaysia.
I would like to take this opportunity to express my
appreciation to all Regulators, Agencies and Ministry
departments who contributed towards the development of this
Global Technology Hub blueprint. The successful completion
of the study has only earmarked the beginning of our
transformation journey for fast-tracking our technology
innovation. It will not be easy and we must work inclusively to
brace the challenges.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In 2013, Cyberview Sdn Bhd received a new mandate from
the Malaysian government to transform Cyberjaya into a
Global Technology Hub. This new hub shall not be limited to
ICT and at the same time accelerate Cyberjaya’s global
leadership in Information Communications Technology.
This initiative aims to create high technology jobs for
Malaysians and to make Cyberjaya a preferred investment
hub for technology companies while reaffirming Cyberjaya's
existing position as a premier ICT location.
Committed to the new duties given, Cyberview’s team set
out on a study to formulate a strategic blueprint. This
blueprint will identify common key success factors of global
technology cities to develop focus areas that will expedite
achievement of the aspirations from the new mandate.
The Strategic Blueprint also developed the various
positioning strategies for Cyberjaya as well as potential
target companies to attract in each technology focus areas.
Cyberjaya will seek to secure, in close collaboration with all
other relevant agencies, a set of key enablers to nurture an
attractive ecosystem for targeted investments, for instance,
talent, infrastructure, R&D institutions and platforms,
incentives and funding, networks, broadband access and
liveability.
The Strategic Blueprint is expected to have a significant
impact in terms of GNI creation, job creation, development
of new industries and industry specific ecosystems as well as
technology transfer.

Hub organically forms
over time due to
naturally conducive
environment
> E.g. around research
institutes that attract an
entrepreneurial
community
> No active push by
government initially
> Broad category with
varying combinations of
involvement from state,
academia and private
sector
> State involved in some
aspects, but not the key
driving force
> Construction of
infrastructure results
from deliberate

> State-sponsored

> Paths of successful hubs vary
widely – No single recipe for
success
> Models involve varying
degrees of involvement from
the state, academia and the
private sector
> Whatever the model, each
hub invariably involves
participation of large
enterprises as hub champions
> Champions serve critical roles
e.g. provide capital and talent,
offer inter-regional and –
national connections, help
bridge commercialization gap

success of different STPs around the globe
 Key Success Factors
Public-Private Partnerships
The close collaboration of industry, academia and government to
invest in science parks and create co-development programs
Presence of committed champions
(leaders)
Key leader/advocate of science park can foster the park's
innovation capabilities and technology knowledge
Existing networks & communities
Official and unofficial networks can improve knowledge circulation
and support growth of innovative ideas
Proximity of R&D institutes and a high
collaboration of research resources
Essential value chain components for higher-end R&D
Focus on knowledge transfer
Encouraging collaboration and use of shared spaces is key to retain
value-added activities within the park
Excellent park management
Management organized with clear roles and a strong vision of the
direction the park should follow for its expansion
Liveable city
Improvement of the quality of life offered for workers is key to
attracting and retaining talent

areas
> Presence in Cyberjaya of
universities specialized in
this area (MMU, Limkokwing
Uni.)

co's in Cyberjaya (e.g. KRU
Studios, Giggle Garage)
> Besides animation studios
and mobile apps developers,
lack of a strong industry
base (e.g. gaming industry,
filmed entertainment)
> Shortfall of talent in 2013
(based on MDeC statistics)
> Strong demand outlook for
all the sub-segments:
augmented reality, gaming
industry, etc.
> Increasing focus on
developing content adapted
to specific geographic areas
– most global players are not
very present in SEA
> Singapore made a strong
push in creative content
and already attracted
leading players (e.g.
LucasFilm, EA)
> Competition from
Northern Asian markets
due to their size & skilled
workforce (e.g. Japan for
mobile apps, India for
films)
Opportunities
> The ecosystem to develop creative content already
exists in Malaysia (gov't agencies providing incentives,
universities, local companies) – Cyberview should
encourage closer collaboration
