KUALA LUMPUR, (Bernama) – Frost and Sullivan Malaysia aims to add 830 employees to its Global Innovation Centre of Excellence in Iskandar Malaysia by 2020. The centre, which opened a few days ago, is the result of the strategic collaboration with the Multimedia Development Corporation (MDeC) and Iskandar Investment Bhd, that was announced by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak at Iskandar Malaysia’s fifth anniversary celebrations late last year.
Frost and Sullivan Global President and Managing Partner Aroop Zutshi said their goal was to create new knowledge-based activities and develop specialised skills that would support Malaysia’s aim to be a high-value and a high-income nation by 2020.
On the newly opened centre, Zutshi said Frost and Sullivan was happy to be part of the developments in Iskandar Malaysia. “Frost and Sullivan believes that the development of the centre here will be a real game changer for the future of the company,” he said.
