In driving enterprise 5G adoption forward, the Malaysian Research Accelerator for Technology and Innovation (MRANTI) on 7 April 2023 brought together 20 key stakeholders to discuss pertinent issues, as well as to connect and collaborate on initiatives to progress the design, development and deployment of industry and enterprise 5G innovations in order to raise Malaysia\u2019s competitiveness.<\/p>\n\n\n

Media release issued stated a recent report by GSMA Intelligence, revealed that Malaysia currently has a 1% adoption rate of 5G despite achieving close to 50% 5G population coverage. Industry pundits have alluded that a key indicator for the success of 5G must include enterprise innovation and use cases that provide compelling applications to intensify industry adoption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Malaysia\u2019s ambition to raise its competitiveness and be a regional leader in 5G, new 5G enabled ports, smart hospitals, automated vehicles, smart manufacturing facilities and more must be designed from today, especially as neighbouring countries have already deployed such industry-focussed solutions to market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs many enterprises fast-track their digitalisation plans, we want to offer the right enabling environment – beyond infrastructure and technologies, for them to realise the full value of 5G,\u201d said Dzuleira Abu Bakar, CEO, MRANTI at a special roundtable discussion held at MRANTI Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the 2022 EY Reimagining Industry Futures study, only 24% of enterprises are truly confident that their organisation can successfully implement 5G. In this, many are said to be looking for transformation partners, not just technology suppliers – with up to 75% citing that ecosystem strategies as central to their five-year growth outlook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith pressures to accelerate innovation whilst inking revenue for new products and services, enterprise 5G implementations must demonstrate positive financial outcomes with confidence – and cross-sector collaborations offer a good way forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAt MRANTI, we connect innovators, researchers and businesses with resources and capabilities to drive better return on innovation. Beyond the hardware, partners and stakeholders – including telcos, government, corporate innovators, technical experts, academia and civil society – play an important role to incubate and catalyse innovations for a more enriching data-driven future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These multi-stakeholder roundtable discussions open up new possibilities for dynamic business models and technical collaborations that serve to advance 5G enterprise development and adoption, Dzuleira added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dzuleira explained that MRANTI PARK would provide a 5G enterprise-purposed facility soon. \u201cMRANTI 5G Experience Centre, to be launched by mid-2023, unlocks the potential for a wide variety of use cases to be developed, including those that help corporations meet sustainability goals and improve supply chain management – two top agendas of investors and the public alike,\u201d Dzuleira continued. The Centre will host a prototyping, test, demo and lab area with speeds up to 1GBps to showcase industry applications and use cases by vertical sectors.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The roundtable discussions on 7 April 2023 follow from the recent tripartite Memorandum of Understanding inked between MRANTI, Digital Nasional Berhad (DNB) and Ericsson to accelerate the commercialisation of 5G-enabled Science, Technology, Innovation and Economy (STIE) solutions by and for enterprises based in Malaysia. MRANTI also runs a number of knowledge sessions and workshops for enterprise innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a 4IR hub, MRANTI has 5 focus areas including dronetech, healthtech, agritech, bioscience and advanced technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MRANTI, a convergence of Technology Park Malaysia (TPM Corp) and the Malaysian Global Innovation and Creativity Centre (MaGIC) is Malaysia\u2019s central research commercialisation agency that fast-tracks the development of technology innovations from ideas to impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MRANTI serves as a connector, incubator and catalyst to enable early-stage ideation to mature entities to commercialise and scale. MRANTI offers innovators and industry access to world-class integrated infrastructure, programmes, services, facilities and a suite of resources. In doing so, MRANTI aims to expand Malaysia\u2019s funnel of innovation supply, and unlock new R&D value by ensuring effective transitions in the commercialisation lifecycle. It will also link academia with industry and the public sector to streamline market-driven R&D efforts for mission-based outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MRANTI is headquartered at MRANTI Park, an extensive 686-acre 4IR innovation hub in Kuala Lumpur, supporting the growth of smart manufacturing, biotech, agritech, smart city, green tech and enabling technology clusters.<\/p>\n
