MYStartup, in partnership with Growth Charger, has selected 26 high potential startups for the MYStartup Pre-Accelerator Cohort 3 Programme.
These 26 startups have been shortlisted from 136 applicants across Malaysia and will undergo a four-month tailored programme. The programme aims to accelerate these startups towards achieving product-market fit and contribute to the overall success of the Malaysian startup ecosystem.
The selected startups cover four main sectors: green technology, smart living, hospitality, and digitalisation, including data solutions, industrial IoT, and robotics. The selection process comes at the heels of the previous cohort MYStartup programme, which saw similar high-potential companies such as Materials In Works, Sayur Kita School, Luwjistik, Axcyn, Certiify, and more, gaining a leg up through MYStartup.
Norman Matthieu Vanhaecke, Group Chief Executive Officer of Cradle, expressed his enthusiasm at the programme launch, stating, “Malaysia’s economic success is dependent on the success of its entrepreneurs. Small & medium enterprises account for almost 98.5% of business entities in the country, accounting for 66% of the workforce. There is therefore an urgent need to promote an inclusive, high-performing, and sustainable entrepreneurship ecosystem. We are thrilled to witness Malaysian technology startups benefit from this programme and anticipate the remarkable growth ahead of them. Malaysia is rapidly emerging as a key player in Southeast Asia’s technology and innovation sector, aligning well with the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation’s aspiration for the country to be in the top 20 global startup ecosystem by 2030.”
Designed for dedicated startups aiming to validate their concepts, the Pre-Accelerator offers a comprehensive package. This includes access to a mentor network, innovation hubs, and market exposure. The programme encompasses strategic learning modules, on-demand resources, hands-on mentoring, collaborative spaces, networking events, and strategic connections within the ecosystem. The goal is to assist startups in developing viable business models and unlocking growth opportunities.
“Throughout these four-months programme, it’s all about Product-market fit. We are eager to witness remarkable achievements from the 26 startups spanning various sectors such as SaaS, E-commerce & Marketplace, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and more. Speak to your customers, refine your product and think about scale; We anticipate future accomplishments in the coming months under Growth Charger.” commented Iskandar Shafi’i, the Director of Growth Charger.
“At Rabt, our goal is to create a premier Islamic storytelling and knowledge-sharing platform, providing a top-tier user experience and connecting users with esteemed voices in the Islamic world. This programme is a unique opportunity for us to accelerate growth, secure investment, and expand our reach across Southeast Asia, beginning with Malaysia. Through the Pre- accelerator programme, we aim to secure investments and achieve 30,000 monthly active users,” shared Hasam Khan, CEO of Rabt, one of the shortlisted companies in MYStartup’s Pre- Accelerator Programme.
