MIDA, through its Supply Chain Unit under the Domestic Investment Division, co-organised the MIDA–Texas Instruments Malaysia (TIM) Business Matching Day on 9 July 2025. Themed “Bridging Opportunities to Empower Malaysia’s Supply Chain”, the initiative underscored ongoing collaboration with TIM to deepen local vendor participation and foster strategic industry linkages.

The programme brought together 62 selected Malaysian vendors across sub-sectors, including automation, test and assembly, fabrication, packaging, logistics, and talent development. Participants gained direct exposure to TIM’s supplier expectations, covering areas such as procurement practices, logistics compliance, environmental and safety standards, and quality requirements.

These insights were complemented by a dedicated business matching session, which enabled direct engagements between TIM and local companies including UWC Berhad, Flexlink Engineering, TT Vision Technologies, NielsenIQ, and Exyte Malaysia.

This initiative reinforces MIDA’s facilitation role under the Domestic Investment Coordination Platform (DICP), while supporting the New Industrial Master Plan 2030 (NIMP 2030) and the National Semiconductor Strategy (NSS). Moving forward, MIDA aims to expand similar collaborations with leading multinational companies like TIM to further strengthen Malaysia’s supply chain ecosystem and enhance local industry competitiveness.
