Empowering Malaysia’s Rise in the Global Semiconductor Value Chain
NSW Automation proudly took part in the ASEAN Semiconductor Summit (ASEMIS) 2025 as a Bronze Sponsor on 24 July 2025 in One World Hotel Kuala Lumpur, marking the one-year anniversary of Malaysia’s National Semiconductor Strategy (NSS). The event gathered regional leaders, innovators, and industry pioneers to reinforce ASEAN’s ambition to become a globally competitive semiconductor powerhouse.
From Penang to the World: Supporting NSS and Beyond
From Penang — Malaysia’s semiconductor heartland — NSW Automation is committed to supporting the National Semiconductor Strategy (NSS) and driving the nation’s role in the global semiconductor value chain. As a homegrown automation specialist, the company plays a vital role in strengthening Malaysia’s advanced packaging, IC assembly, and high-precision dispensing capabilities.
By developing scalable, high-accuracy dispensing systems tailored for microelectronics and semiconductor manufacturing, NSW Automation directly contributes to Malaysia’s goal of becoming a key node in the global supply and value chains.
Aligning with the Vision: “The Indispensable Middle”
Prime Minister YAB Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim, in his keynote address at ASEMIS, emphasized:
“Malaysia must build on its local strengths to serve a larger regional and global purpose. By strengthening our domestic ecosystem, we are also helping to raise ASEAN’s industrial capacity. Through these efforts, Malaysia can truly become the Indispensable Middle, a trusted partner that connects ASEAN to the world.”
This national direction resonates strongly with NSW Automation’s mission to elevate Malaysia’s role in semiconductor technology — not just as a participant, but as a strategic enabler of regional integration and global supply resilience.
