Empowering Industry and Advancing Malaysia’s Global Presence
“Traditionally, event sourcing has relied on recommendations and referrals. EventXpo transforms this by offering a single, comprehensive platform where corporate buyers can connect directly with trusted suppliers and make informed decisions. Malaysia has long demonstrated its potential on the global stage through international roadshows. Now, it’s time to bring that momentum home and spotlight Malaysian excellence right here. Our goal is to elevate the business events industry and position our players at the forefront of the Asia region,” added Datuk Dr M Gandhi.
Redefining Connections with Purpose : Kind Malaysia Returns
Further amplifying the event’s impact, Kind Malaysia returns alongside EventXpo 2025 to highlight the power of corporate social responsibility. By connecting businesses with non-profit organisations, this initiative fosters collaborations that create lasting societal value. It reflects MACEOS’ vision to embed purpose into business events through inclusivity, empowerment, and sustainable community engagement.
A Platform Built on Momentum
With more than 3,000 trade visitors, 85 exhibitors, and 115 hosted buyers recorded at its debut edition, EventXpo 2025 is set to raise the bar. It offers unparalleled opportunities to learn, connect, and grow, solidifying its place as the must-attend showcase of the year for Malaysia’s business events industry. Be part of the transformation redefining the future of business events in Malaysia.
