The Malaysia Pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai has been renamed Malaysia\u2019s Technology and Innovation Hub to be a part of Expo City Dubai in UAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After the pavilion was decommissioned, officials from the Ministry of Science, Technology, and Innovation (MOSTI) handed it over to Aerodyne Group in a ceremony commemorating Malaysia\u2019s participation in the expo\u2019s five-year legacy programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The pavilion will be run by the Aerodyne Group, which will use it as their second international headquarters. Aerodyne Group, which is ranked first in the world by DII\u2019s Drone Service Provider Ranking 2021, is a perfect match for the five-year legacy programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MOSTI spearheaded Malaysia\u2019s participation in Expo 2020 Dubai, with the Malaysian Green Technology and Climate Change Corporation (MGTC) serving as the implementing agency. From October 1, 2021, to March 31, 2022, the Rainforest Canopy Pavilion, a 1,234 square metre, two-and-a-half-story structure, welcomed over a million\u00a0visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Malaysia is one of the pavilions selected to participate in the Expo\u2019s five-year legacy programme, during which its structure will be repurposed and remain at Expo City Dubai, a \u201ctech-enabled city of the future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMalaysia is proud and honoured to be part of Expo City Dubai and will leverage opportunities at the centre envisioned to be a global hub for creativity and a model for cities of the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe are excited to be part of the \u2018most beautiful ambitions of Dubai\u2019 as announced by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE<\/a> and Ruler of Dubai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201dWe congratulate the people and Government of Dubai on its new chapter and look forward to the opening of the city on 1 October 2022\u201d, said MOSTI Secretary-General Datuk Zainal Abidin Abu Hassan, who is also the Commissioner-General of Malaysia for Expo 2020 Dubai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In terms of the advantages Malaysia will gain from participating in the programme, he stated, \u201cThe UAE is also a major hub in the West Asian region, which serves as a gateway for Malaysian companies to explore new markets. Therefore, our participation in the 5-year-legacy programme can also help facilitate Malaysian companies\u2019 access to the global market and highlight Malaysia\u2019s comprehensive ecosystem, support, and infrastructure to investors.\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Throughout the expo, Malaysia held weekly thematic trade and business programmes, led, and supported by 21 ministries, 70 agencies, and five state governments, promoting Malaysian innovations, products, and services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThrough the concept of public-private partnership, MOSTI, together with the Ministries, Government Agencies and State Governments that focus on technology development, will continue to promote activities and market products and services to the UAE market.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThe technology and innovation hub will also serve as a \u201csoft landing zone\u201d for the commercialisation and infusion of viable technology-based products and services for the Middle East regional market,\u201d he added.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Zainal Abidin also said that Aerodyne\u2019s success internationally serves as an inspiration to Malaysian companies and will encourage more businesses to enter the global market, particularly in the fields of technology and innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThe Malaysia Pavilion will serve as a platform for the government to strengthen and intensify its agenda forward and to encourage more start-ups and tech-base companies to go global. We are indeed very excited to see the ripple effect of this 5-year legacy on our industries,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Meanwhile, Aerodyne Group is enthusiastic to carry the torch for Malaysia in demonstrating the country\u2019s commitment to sustainability and charting a future path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThrough our tools, we want to push the world and ourselves to make more sustainable choices. It is an honour to be entrusted with Malaysia\u2019s net-zero carbon pavilion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThe strategic location of Dubai plays a vital role in expanding the reach of Aerodyne\u2019s services and placing drones centre-stage at the global level. We envision that the pavilion will become a hub for all things drones, a conduit for innovation, a space for all drone enthusiasts, and a place for excellence,\u201d said Aerodyne founder and group CEO, Mr. RabihBouRached.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Malaysia Pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai has been renamed Malaysia\u2019s Technology and Innovation Hub to be a part of Expo City Dubai in UAE.
