Is Corporate FOMO the answer to closing Malaysia’s Corporate Venture Capital gap? With only 39% of corporations incorporating CVC into their innovation strategies, Malaysia trails behind regional peers like Indonesia, Thailand, and Singapore. This episode of Enterprise Explores dives into a report by Capital Markets Malaysia and BCG X, examining the barriers, opportunities, and actionable steps needed to build a thriving CVC ecosystem.
Joining us to unpack the findings from their report – Advancing Malaysia’s Innovation Landscape: The Pivotal Role of Corporate Venture Capital – are Navina Balasingam, General Manager of Capital Markets Malaysia, and Hanno Stegmann, Managing Director and Partner at BCG X.
We discuss the challenges of risk-averse corporations, the government's role in facilitating co-investments, and strategies to address key gaps in Malaysia’s CVC landscape. Learn how CVC can drive innovation for Corporate Malaysia, manage risk elements effectively, and activate the three key levers required to catalyse growth in the ecosystem.
For those unfamiliar, Corporate Venture Capital (CVC) involves corporations investing in startups and high-growth ventures through dedicated investment arms. Beyond funding, it’s about leveraging capital, expertise, and market access to fuel innovation and create growth opportunities for both startups and corporations.
