Our Vision Mission

Inspire. Build. Scale.

Inspire Talent

We aim to nurture and empower the next generation of entrepreneurs, researchers, and experts.

Build Sustainable Solutions

Our focus is on generating solutions that contribute to sustainable and resilient cities, with a key objective of achieving net zero emissions.

Scaling Startup

We help startups to scale with the resources they need to succeed, including talent, market access, and investment opportunities.

We Focus on Sustainable and Resilient Cities

Just as Sunway City Kuala Lumpur went from a wasteland to a wonderland, Sunway iLabs was formed to cultivate an ecosystem for startups to do the same – building ideas and potentially evolving this city to the next level. As our entrepreneurs, researchers and experts come together to generate sustainable solutions; we have given rise to Sunway Living Lab, fostering innovation around sustainable and resilient cities, with achieving net zero as a primary goal.

Bringing Innovations towards Malaysia & Beyond

Over the years, we have expanded our headquarters from Sunway City Kuala Lumpur to Penang, Sunway Iskandar in Johor Bharu, and Singapore.
