BMCC Visit to Infobip

Last week, we had the honour of visiting Infobip – a Sterling member of the BMCC at their office.

We were graciously welcomed by Sharifah Thaherah, Chief Regional Counsel, APAC and India; Matija Kapić, Head of Professional Engineering; Lim Jiun Kei, Head of Operators Partnership; Emelyn Gonzales, Head of Finance; and FaisalWahedi, Head of HR.

Infobip, headquartered in Croatia and the UK, boasts a total market capital of USD8 billion. Making it to Fast Company’s annual list of the World’s Most Innovative Companies of 2024, Infobip is recognised for its innovative technology in Cloud infrastructure, conversational chat apps, and generative artificial intelligence (AI).

We learned that Infobip now has 80 global offices and has been operating in Malaysia for 12 years, serving as the APAC hub for the region’s business operations. The discussion was enlightening and centred on potential areas for collaboration with the Chamber, particularly the facilitation of discussions on talent requirements in the AI sector and the overall governance of AI.

They emphasised the pivotal role of telecommunications companies in sharing insights and expanding the ecosystem with the financial industry to enhance trust and digital adoption through data security. Infobip is also passionate about driving its CSR objectives through the Chamber, especially in STEM Education for children. We aim to support their interests and assist in their successful expansion in Malaysia.
