Connecting China, the U.S., and Asia-Pacific capital: APIC Kuala Lumpur officially launches as a new hub for innovation, building a global business empowerment ecosystem
As a key business hub connecting China, the United States, the Asia-Pacific region, and the Middle East, the launch of APIC marks the official establishment of a new ecosystem integrating Web3 innovation incubation, global education empowerment, and cross-border capital integration.
Navigating Web3 tides with focused insights
A strategic new landmark aimed at reshaping the Asia-Pacific business landscape—the Asia Pacific Innovation Center (APIC)—was officially launched today in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. As a key commercial hub connecting China, the United States, the Asia-Pacific region, and the Middle East, APIC's launch marks the arrival of a new ecosystem integrating Web3 innovation incubation, global education empowerment, and cross-border capital convergence.
At the opening ceremony held that evening, Eugene Xiao, Chairman of the DID Alliance and the Asia Pacific Innovation Center, delivered a speech outlining the center’s vision to global partners. Based in the strategically vital city of Kuala Lumpur, APIC will strive to break down geographical barriers by integrating top-tier global financial, technological, and educational resources, offering enterprises full-chain support from startup incubation to international expansion.
Three Core Drivers Defining the Future of Business
APIC is more than just a physical space—it is a dynamic platform for resource integration. In his speech, Eugene emphasized that the center’s core competitiveness is distilled into three key drivers:
1. Business-Driven: Building a global full-chain service system. APIC will serve as an intersection between Web3 innovation projects and traditional businesses, offering not only one-stop incubation support from technology and compliance to market access, but also actively assisting traditional enterprises in digital transformation and overseas expansion.
2. Education Empowerment: Cultivating future-ready global leaders. The center announced strategic partnerships with globally renowned institutions including the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), UCLA Anderson School of Management, and Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM), introducing blockchain and frontier technology programs. By issuing authoritative certifications, APIC aims to cultivate industry professionals with a global perspective.
3. Alliance Ecosystem: Constructing a cross-regional strategic network. With strong backing from organizations such as DID Alliance, HotLink, 42X Fund, DPIN, Tangrendao, and HKIT, APIC has built a diverse ecosystem spanning finance, technology, and industry, delivering unparalleled capital support and forward-looking insights to its members.
Six Strategic Agreements to Build a Diverse, Win-Win Ecosystem
At the launch event, the Asia Pacific Innovation Center demonstrated its strong capacity for resource aggregation by signing Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) with six prestigious institutions, establishing a comprehensive presence across four domains: digital economy, business innovation, education, and social responsibility:
· Advancing the Digital Economy and Commercial Connectivity: APIC formed strategic partnerships with the Singapore Digital Chamber of Commerce (SDCC) and the Malaysian Fujian Chamber of Commerce (MFCCI). The collaborations will focus on cross-border digital trade, regional tech ecosystem development, and the integration of global Hokkien business resources, jointly unlocking new opportunities in the Asia-Pacific digital economy.
· Empowering Enterprise Innovation and Global Expansion: APIC partnered with Regal Global Sdn Bhd to deepen cooperation in business development, high-value project incubation, and cross-border corporate strategies, enabling enterprises to achieve leapfrog growth.
· Advancing International Education and Youth Development: Committed to nurturing future talent, APIC signed cooperation agreements with Globalfront International Sdn Bhd and World Quanzhou Youth Friendship Association Malaysia Branch. The parties will promote international academic exchange, youth leadership development, and cross-cultural business collaboration, building a pipeline of innovative talent for the Asia-Pacific region.
· Fulfilling Social Responsibility: APIC established a partnership with the Malaysian Community Volunteers Organization (AKRAM) to empower communities through technology and education, advancing public welfare and sustainable development.
Looking Ahead: Building an Open Business Ecosystem
In his closing remarks, Eugene stated: “The establishment of the Asia Pacific Innovation Center represents a new interpretation of the concept of ‘connection.’ We position ourselves as a strategic hub linking global capital and markets—but this is not merely about connecting commercial interests. It is about the deep integration of talent, intelligence, and opportunity. Looking ahead, APIC will become a key engine driving regional collaboration and innovation. We look forward to working with all our partners to build an open, diverse, and mutually beneficial business ecosystem, injecting new growth momentum into the Asia-Pacific region.”
