Our Activities!
Virtual business briefings with market leading experts. The events vary from presentations with subsequent Q&A sessions to roundtable discussions or expert panel with various topics such as Budget Outlook, Government changes, etc.
One of our most popular events where we visit production sites, plantations or other form of interactive and informative company presentations. This event is often combined with excursion or field trips, and is a great networking opportunity.
The purpose of these events is to disseminate crucial knowledge on highly relevant topics for business operations in Malaysia. Among the standard topics can be mentioned budget outlook, government changes and legislative changes.
This is often combined with company visits outside the metropolitan area or in neighbouring countries such as Singapore or Thailand and provides good opportunities to network with fellow chambers and their members.
This type of event is for our members and their families. Among other things, we celebrate the Danish traditional Fastelavn in February with "hit the barrel" and invite you to a Christmas ceremony in December
Networking in a relaxed and informal atmosphere with a short business briefing or other initiating activity. We often meet with our fellow chambers from other –often Northern European– countries and make new acquaintances.
