What happens after the trophies are handed out?
For MSMA winners, the journey doesn’t stop at recognition — it levels up.

Thanks to an invitation extended by Smart4wrd AMD – DSC Consulting Sdn Bhd (DigiwinSoft Malaysia), our team had the opportunity to join an exclusive smart factory learning visit to Qingdao, China this May. MIDF, Bizsphere, and Smart4wrd proudly led a group of our MSMA 2023 winners on this meaningful journey of discovery and learning.

A group of MSMA 2023 winners — including CTRM, Hicom-Teck See, Markaids, CPI (KL), QFit, Promooi, and Sincerely Dyeing & Finishing — joined us for this immersive experience, each one eager to see how leading manufacturers around the world are putting Industry 4.0 into action.

Real Factories. Real Insights. Real Inspiration.

Smart factory exposure is more than a tour — it’s a knowledge transfer opportunity. Winners not only observed world-class operations but also networked with international peers, solution providers, and innovation experts.

Whether it was understanding advanced production automation or learning how data drives operational excellence, these visits were designed to spark ideas and fast-track transformation.

Even better? The conversations. Winners had the chance to connect with local experts, solution providers, and fellow industry leaders — sharing experiences, challenges, and ideas for the future.

At MSMA, we believe recognition is just the starting point. We want to spark progress, build connections, and accelerate transformation — and this Qingdao trip was a perfect example of that mission in action. Because when our local manufacturers get to see, learn, and dream bigger, everyone benefits — not just the companies, but Malaysia’s manufacturing ecosystem as a whole.

What’s Next?

With the Malaysia Smart Manufacturing Awards 2025 nomination period now officially closed, the excitement is building as we prepare to celebrate another outstanding batch of innovators and trailblazers.

Stay tuned for upcoming announcements, including the shortlisted winners and details about the award presentation ceremony. Plus, future MSMA winners can look forward to exclusive opportunities like smart factory visits, knowledge-sharing sessions, and more — designed to accelerate their Industry 4.0 journey.

Because at MSMA, we’re not just celebrating transformation — we’re enabling it.
