Ideagen opens Technology ‘Centre of Excellence’ site in Malaysia

Ideagen officially opened its new Technology ‘Centre of Excellence’ site in Malaysia to strengthen its position in the multi-billion dollar governance, risk and compliance (GRC) software market.

The ambitious project brings with it around 80 new jobs in its first phase of recruitment, with roles ranging from software development, test and cybersecurity.

The new Centre of Excellence is 21,000sq ft office space situated in Subang Jaya, Selangor, with a capacity for 200 software developers and other skilled technology professionals.

The building will also act as a central operational hub for further expansion into Malaysia and the wider Asia-Pacific region.

Ben Dorks, Chief Executive Officer for Ideagen, said: “Our brand new facility in Subang Jaya provides us with solid foundations from where we can expand not just in Malaysia but across the wider Asia-Pacific region.

“Malaysia is a hotbed of technology talent, and we are looking forward to welcoming that talent into the Ideagen Group in what we believe is a clear indication of our commitment to the Malaysian economy.

“This is an exciting next phase in the growth and success of Ideagen, and we firmly believe our Malaysian Technology ‘Centre of Excellence’ will play a central and pivotal part in enabling us to become a global player in the GRC software industry.”

Ideagen’s Technology Centre of Excellence will effectively become the company’s operational hub in the region, as it grows its business in Malaysia and the wider Asia-Pacific. It currently counts prestigious brands such as Air Asia, LionAir, Haeco, Hong Kong Red Cross and the Malaysian Resourced Corporation Berhad amongst its client base.
