The Global Business Forum aims to promote Malaysia globally. It also aims to encourage Malaysian Business to venture overseas and to succeed in the international markets. Following the post pandemic economic recovery, many countries have built back better and are opening their borders to international travels and international trade. Many Malaysian companies have ventured and succeeded overseas. More Malaysian companies especially the Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) should also embark on international business by moving into new markets as well as seeking new opportunities overseas. The Forum will showcase Malaysia as a global player and international competitor. The globalisation of business in the new post pandemic era will present both challenges and opportunities.
