Team Finland visit to Singapore & Malaysia
The Team Finland network invites Finnish companies to a Business Delegation visit to Singapore and Malaysia 19-23 May 2025, led by Minister for Foreign Trade and Development, Mr. Ville Tavio. Take advantage of the opportunities in these rapidly developing countries in Southeast Asia.
Singapore and Malaysia, in the center of the huge Southeast Asian region with over 660 million population, are increasingly looking for international cooperation partners. The two dynamic, forward-looking economies are intensifying their cooperation with the creation of the Singapore-Johor Special Economic Zone, launched in early 2025.
Singapore is the financial and regional hub of Southeast Asia. Singapore is looking for world-class solutions, because it wishes to be number one in every sector globally. The country offers a very safe business environment, very low corruption and is renowned as one of the best global business environments. Singapore released the Singapore Green Plan 2030, which covers whole-of-nation sustainable development efforts. In addition, Singapore has raised digitalization, cyber security, quantum computing, and AI very high in their strategy.
Malaysia’s technology sector is on the rise, especially with regard to semiconductors and cloud services. For Finnish companies, the rapid development of the sector offers many opportunities related to, for example, data center technology, clean room design, ensuring safe interconnections, low carbon construction, and participation in semiconductor industry value chains. Growing energy needs and ambitious climate targets have created further demand for expertise related to energy efficiency, circular economy, renewable energy production (incl. waste-to-energy), water expertise, waste heat recovery, and carbon recovery.
This visit allows Finnish companies to showcase their expertise to decision makers, industry leaders, and potential buyers in Singapore and Malaysia. Participating companies can meet with authorities, project owners, and investors from both the public and private sectors. They will engage with potential buyers and key stakeholders in Malaysia’s Data Centre, Semiconductor, and Energy sectors, including Federal and State Governments, Industry Players and Associations, and industry leaders.
Companies can participate in the program in either one or both of the countries.
