Startups, Corporations Pair Up in Malaysia

Ha Nguyen

   Malaysia may have an idea that will help startups, which typically do
   not have much funding or experience, as well as more established firms,
   which are often afraid of disruption from new competitors.

   Companies in the Southeast Asian nation are pairing up, with newer and
   older companies coming together to benefit from each other's strengths
   and to help each other get past their weaknesses. The model could
   become an interesting trend across the region, as Malaysia is the most
   developed economy in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations after
   Singapore, and it has given birth to a range of companies that have
   expanded their operations to other countries, from startups such as
   ride-hailing app Grab to large companies like AirAsia.
