Spreading roots in Malaysia and beyond: Future Farms with Co-Founder Shawn Ng | 21st April 2022
In the Global Startup Ecosystem Report 2020, Kuala Lumpur ranked 11th in the category of the Top 100 Emerging Ecosystems with a perfect 10 score for market reach and performance and 9 for talent. In the Global Innovation Index 2021 Malaysia was ranked second only to China for the category of most innovative upper-middle income country and the Global Entrepreneurship Index ranked Malaysia’s entrepreneurial foundation second in the region of Southeast Asia following Singapore with a score of 40.1. The year 2021 saw a 58% increase in the number of startup IPOs as compared to the year prior, and also welcomed Malaysia’s first unicorn, Carsome.
With such momentum predicted to continue and grow in 2022, the world should continue to watch Malaysia’s tech startup ecosystem for more burgeoning startups. One such startup to keep an eye out for is Future Farms; an indoor farming start-up based in Kuala Lumpur. The company has emerged during the pandemic to grow food right within the city as a way to solve food security problems and bring fresh, pesticide-free vegetables directly to consumers. It is an AgTech company who builds our technology and knowledge in-house, and we provide solutions across the Indoor Farming value-chain – from farm building & design to the offloading of the end products. It also has a consumer-facing vegetable brand called The Vegetable Co.
In this webinar we invite the Co-Founder of Future Farms, Shawn Ng, to sit in conversation with us and talk about the company’s business model, growth prospects and unique challenges that they face in their pursuit for complete food security in Malaysia.
