Mr. Mohammad Shazie Zaini Mohd Shahril Firdaus

Mohammad Shazie Zaini is the Chairman of Koperasi Matlamat Pembangunan Lestari Berhad (Kop SDG), a cooperative he co-founded alongside 20 community champions to advance the SDGs through grassroots entrepreneurship in Malaysia. Since its inception, Kop SDG has supported individual entrepreneurs as well as community-based enterprises — with “Buy for Impact” as its guiding theme — in building sustainable livelihoods and inclusive economic opportunities.

Before Kop SDG, Shazie spent almost a decade in communications, including more than seven years as a producer/editor across several media houses, among them the Broadcasting Department, RTM. 

He has since dedicated himself full-time to Kop SDG’s growth over the past two-plus years.
