Covering Disruptive Technology Powering Business in The Digital Age

At the Nokia Technology Day held in Kuala Lumpur, Nokia reaffirmed its commitment to supporting enterprises in Malaysia in their digital transformation journey and advancing the nation’s Industry 4.0 roadmap.

Since the introduction of its National IR 4.0 Policy last year and the recently launched Centre for the Fourth Industrial Revolution (WEF-C4IR) earlier this year, Malaysia has made great progress in steering strategic socioeconomic transformation with the adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies nationwide. Most recently, the country observed a key milestone of achieving 27 percent of 5G coverage nationwide, with the targeted 36% expected to reach by the end of 2022.

The event hosted by Datuk Mohd Rauf Nasir, Managing Director of Malaysia, Sri Lanka & Maldives at Nokia, and Preetha Nadarajah, Chief Technology Officer at Nokia Malaysia, saw the company provide an update on its presence and 5G leadership in Malaysia.

Leveraging on its position as a market leader in 5G and industrial-grade private wireless networks, network infrastructure and enterprise business, Nokia also highlighted how it is providing mission critical solutions for communication service providers (CSPs) and enterprises across key industries such as manufacturing, oil and gas, and agriculture.

Through a series of demonstrations, Nokia also presented some of its latest innovations, products and technologies. Specially curated from the company’s participation at this year’s Mobile World Congress (MWC) Barcelona 2022, the demonstrations solidified Nokia’s commitment to supporting Malaysian enterprises’ digital transformation journey and helping Malaysia achieve its national Industry 4.0 agenda.
