KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 15 – The Malaysia-China Summit 2024 (MCS 2024), which will take place from Dec 17 to 19, 2024, at the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre, is expected to generate RM2 billion in trade and investment leads.
More than 500 exhibitors and 10,000 trade visitors will converge at MCS 2024, which features an international trade and exhibition expo and a leadership conference.
The summit, organised by Qube Integrated Malaysia in association with the Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (MATRADE), will mark the 50th anniversary of Malaysia-China bilateral ties and serve as a catalyst for economic growth and innovation. It carries the theme “Prosperity Beyond 50.”
At a media briefing today, Qube and MATRADE announced the Malaysian Consortium for Mid-Tier Companies (MCMTC) and the Malaysian International Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MICCI) as strategic partners for MCS 2024.
They also announced the Malaysian National News Agency (BERNAMA), Star Media Group, and Sin Chew Daily as official media partners.
MATRADE board member Datuk Mohammad Medan Abdullah said the strategic partnership will bring a dynamic presence of Malaysian mid-tier companies (MTCs) and large corporations, ensuring the summit’s success in fostering robust trade relations and investment opportunities among Malaysia, China, and the broader ASEAN region.
Meanwhile, Qube Integrated executive chairman Richard Teo stated that the Malaysian MTCs will complement the substantial involvement of their China counterparts, who are eager to forge collaborations.
“These China companies represent a dynamic array of sectors, including construction materials, hardware tools, home décor, automotive, daily use products, appliances, electronics, culture, arts and crafts, leisure, fashion, and lifestyle.
“I’m confident there will be significant synergy between Malaysian and Chinese companies at the summit, as they can leverage their respective strengths and develop mutually beneficial partnerships,” he said.
