Smart Investments. Scalable Tech. Stronger Security

23rd April 2026 | Hyatt Regency Kuala Lumpur Midtown | 09:00 AM – 05:00 PM

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, April 14, 2026  /PRNewswire/ — Exito Media Concepts today announced the 46th Edition of the Digital Transformation Summit Malaysia 2026, convening on 23rd April 2026 at the Hyatt Regency Kuala Lumpur Midtown. The summit will bring together more than 200 C-Level executives, technology directors, and government leaders to address the strategic and operational imperatives shaping Malaysia’s next phase of digital growth.

Now in its 46th edition and part of a series spanning 11+ countries, the summit has established itself as one of Asia Pacific’s most consequential forums for enterprise technology leadership.

The Strategic Context: Malaysia’s Digital Economy at a Critical Juncture

Malaysia’s digital economy is undergoing a structural shift. Driven by targeted government-led initiatives and accelerating enterprise adoption of artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and Web 3.0, organizations across every sector are fundamentally reimagining how they operate, compete, and deliver value.

The opportunity is significant. Yet the path to enterprise-wide transformation demands more than technology investment — it requires navigating complex cybersecurity environments, integrating legacy infrastructure with modern digital architecture, developing organizational capabilities at pace, and embedding a culture of innovation that sustains long-term resilience. For Malaysia’s business leadership, strategic clarity has never been more consequential.

The Digital Transformation Summit Malaysia 2026 is designed precisely for this inflection point.

Enterprise Transformation in Practice

The business case for bold digital action is already being written across Malaysia. A leading domestic enterprise recently undertook a comprehensive digital transformation initiative — transitioning to a cloud-first infrastructure supported by advanced data analytics and AI capabilities.

The results were measurable and material: automating key operational processes delivered significant gains in efficiency and organizational agility. The concurrent deployment of robust cybersecurity frameworks ensured data integrity and regulatory compliance. Simultaneously, structured workforce upskilling programmes enabled teams to perform with confidence in an evolving technology environment.

The outcome: improved business performance, deeper customer engagement, and a materially stronger competitive position within Malaysia’s digital economy. It is precisely this calibre of real-world insight that the Summit is built to surface and scale.

Event Overview

The 46th Edition of the Digital Transformation Summit Malaysia 2026 is part of a globally recognized series of events hosted across 11+ countries. This edition will convene more than 200 C-Level Executives, Directors, Heads of Technology, Government leaders, and digital transformation leaders from across industries.

Through expert-led keynotes, panel discussions, and real-world case studies, the summit will highlight innovative strategies, emerging technologies, and actionable insights that empower organizations to drive digital growth and operational excellence.

• Signed MOU with World Vision to carry out social contribution activities for children and youth in Vietnam’s Haiphong City
• Launching projects for eye health support and school psychological counseling rooms

SEOUL, South Korea, April 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LG Innotek (CEO Moon Hyuksoo) has partnered with the global humanitarian organization World Vision to expand its flagship social contribution program, “I Dream Up,” into Vietnam.

On April 3, LG Innotek announced that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with World Vision to launch the “I Dream Up Vietnam” project at World Vision’s headquarters in Yeouido, Seoul.

I Dream Up is a social contribution program whose name carries multiple meanings in Korean—”ai” (kids) and “eye”—symbolizing LG Innotek’s optical solutions business and its support for children’s futures. Specifically, the name of the program reflects the characteristics of LG Innotek’s camera module business, which supplies the “eyes” of smartphones, autonomous vehicles, and robots.

The program mainly includes the “Children and Youth Vision Loss Prevention Project” and “Junior Pine Tree Classroom,” which provides education on materials and components. To date, the program has provided eye surgery and treatment support to around 400 children and youth in Korea and engaged 18,000 students in the Junior Pine Tree Classroom.

This MOU aims to expand the “I Dream Up program,” which is currently thriving domestically, into overseas markets, starting with Vietnam. The two companies will collaborate on an eye health support project and the establishment of school psychological counseling rooms for children and youth in Haiphong City, Vietnam, home to LG Innotek’s largest global production subsidiary.

Through this partnership, LG Innotek plans to conduct ophthalmic examinations at eight elementary, middle, and high schools in Haiphong City’s Ngo Quyen District while also providing operational support and medical supplies for eye treatments. In addition, the company will establish infrastructure for psychological counseling rooms at four schools, including counseling devices and equipment, and provide mental health-related materials.

LG Innotek envisions expanding the “I Dream Up” program to regions hosting its major global production subsidiaries, including Vietnam and Mexico.

Baeksoo Cho, Vice President for Business Support Division, said, “Through the ‘I Dream Up’ program, we hope to help children—the future generation—improve their eye health and pursue their dreams through greater educational opportunities,” adding, “LG Innotek will continue its sincere social contribution efforts to help build a brighter future and bring greater happiness to all.”

Launched last year, “I Dream Up” is LG Innotek’s social contribution brand. The subject “I” (pronounced “ai” in Korean) carries multiple meanings, including “eye” and “kids.” Its main programs are the “Children and Youth Vision Loss Prevention Project” and “Junior Pine Tree Classroom.”

The “Children and Youth Vision Loss Prevention Project” covers the full costs of ophthalmic examinations and surgeries for strabismus (eye misalignment) and entropion (inverted eyelid), as well as the related treatments, for children and youth unable to access care due to the high costs of such procedures. Launched last year as Korea’s first such initiative, the project has benefited approximately 400 children and youth to date.

The “Junior Pine Tree Classroom” provides hands-on education on semiconductors and autonomous driving to elementary school students in Korea while also supporting after-school care institutions with classroom repairs and upgrades to learning equipment. From 2011 to present, the program has engaged 16,000 children in materials and science classes and improved learning environments for 1,900 children across 53 after-school care facilities.
