This comprehensive solution encompasses recruitment, HR consultancy, and staffing services tailored to meet the needs of discerning employers and job seekers alike, aiming to provide a complete talent ecosystem for the business community.

Awantec, Chief Executive Officer, Azlan Zainal Abidin expressed confidence in this latest venture, saying, “Awantec is delighted to introduce ATX, which will revolutionize the approach to talent acquisition, particularly in the Information Technology (IT) field, through resource augmentation.
By integrating targeted training and learning with the use of Generative AI, ATX aims to address the growing demands of supplying and managing the contingent workforce, offering new opportunities for job seekers, especially in the gig economy.”

Leveraging recruitment specialists and AI technology from partner Skillsoft Percipio, ATX ensures that candidates are thoroughly assessed and matched to organizational needs, enhancing the efficiency of the recruitment process.

Awantec stands to gain significantly from Google’s $2 billion investment in a new data center in Malaysia. Here are some of the key benefits:

Business Growth and Expansion: As a leading digital transformation enabler in Malaysia, Awantec will benefit from the increased demand for cloud services and digital solutions. This partnership with Google will likely result in more business opportunities and expansion of its service offerings.

Technological Advancements: Awantec will have the opportunity to leverage Google's cutting-edge technology and infrastructure. This access to advanced technology can enhance Awantec's capabilities in providing innovative solutions to its clients.

Skill Development and Upskilling: Part of Google’s investment includes initiatives for AI and digital skill development. Awantec can benefit from these programs by upskilling its workforce, thereby improving its service quality and staying competitive in the rapidly evolving tech landscape​ (blog.google)​​ (CNA)​.

Economic Impact: The establishment of the data center will contribute to the local economy, creating jobs and fostering a tech-savvy environment. Awantec, being a key player in this sector, will be at the forefront of this economic transformation, benefiting from the overall growth in the industry.

These benefits position Awantec to not only grow its business but also play a crucial role in Malaysia's journey towards becoming a regional digital hub.

Awantec is sleeping Dragon. It is going to roar again. Target RM1.00 in short term.

“We’re doing analytics for Google, we are doing cloud transformation programmes for Google [for customers that use Google Suites]. From a talent perspective, we’ve got a learning management system.”

He adds that Awantec has embarked on a business transformation strategy, where it has started selling SAGE enterprise resource planning (ERP) software, as well as e-invoicing. An ERP platform is a type of business management software that integrates day-to-day business processes.

Awantec is already serving about 400,000 civil servants through Google Workspace productivity tools and students using the Google Classroom application. “We also provide Google Workspace services to five million schoolchildren,” says Azlan.

Awantec has also penetrated the commercial segment, to tap the cloud transformation and migration market. The group is pushing for AI services as well. “So we believe that the business is going to see quite a big growth,” he says.

Malaysia recently became the focal point of multibillion-ringgit investments in the data centre and artificial intelligence (AI) space. Names like Amazon Web Services, NTT (a global infrastructure and services company) and GDS (a developer and operator of high-performance data centres) have been investing in Malaysia. Then of course, there is Nvidia’s RM20 billion investment in data centres with YTL Corp Bhd (KL:YTL).

On May 2, Microsoft announced a US$2.2 billion investment in Malaysia for new cloud and AI infrastructure and on May 7, Minister of Investment, Trade and Industry Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz confirmed that Google would invest in Malaysia.

“We know that Google is going to invest in Malaysia, so with us being the partner for the public sector, it creates a lot of opportunities for us,” says Azlan.

The partnership with Google allows Awantec to be part of the government’s cloud framework agreement (CFA) signed in May 2022. The CFA is one of the main thrusts to drive the digital transformation of the public sector, especially by utilising the cloud network.

Google, M'sian govt on strategic collaboration, skill opportunities for 300,000 by 2026

SAN FRANCISCO (Nov 15): The Malaysian government and Google on Wednesday announced a strategic collaboration to create inclusive growth opportunities for more Malaysians and home-grown companies in the fast-growing digital economy.

The collaboration brings both parties together to help businesses of all sizes advance their digital competitiveness through skilling programmes, investment in digital infrastructure, responsible artificial intelligence (AI) innovation, and cloud-first policies, Google said in a statement here on Wednesday.

“This latest commitment by Google, aimed at accelerating local innovation and talent development in the field of AI, will certainly boost the nation's digital competitiveness, in line with the Madani Economy Framework and the New Industrial Master Plan 2030 (NIMP 2030),” Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said on Wednesday.



Building an ecosystem for a thriving innovation-based economy
Cyberjaya is a shining example of the nation’s commitment to technological advancements and innovation. Its journey began when it was conceived as part of Malaysia’s Multimedia Super Corridor (MSC) initiative in 1997, aimed at creating a high-tech environment that would attract global technology companies, foster innovation and attract foreign direct investments (FDIs).

The Madani Economy Framework aims to increase the size of Malaysia’s economic pie, as well as ensure that all stakeholders — particularly the rakyat and small businesses — will enjoy the ensuing socio-economic benefits, he said.

Google said the latest initiatives are built on its investments in Malaysia over the last 12 years.

In 2022 alone, the company’s products and programmes supported more than 47,900 jobs and also contributed, directly and indirectly, an estimated US$2.8 billion (RM13.15 billion) in economic benefits to local businesses.

“The partnership we are announcing today (Wednesday) with the government of Malaysia aligns Google’s local mission of Advancing Malaysia Together with the government’s goal to create a supportive ecosystem for innovation that includes more meaningful and equitable job opportunities,” said Alphabet and Google president and chief investment officer Ruth Porat.

Meanwhile, Investment, Trade and Industry Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz welcomed Google’s continued contributions to the rakyat and home-grown businesses, especially through programmes that nurture skilled talent and help Malaysia’s small businesses scale regionally.

“Apart from supporting the achievement of the NIMP 2030’s missions, these will also enhance Malaysia’s overall global competitiveness to foreign investors. The Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry and its agency, the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (Mida), will do our utmost to facilitate Google’s planned investments in Malaysia.”

Inclusive skilling opportunities for 300,000 Malaysians by 2026
To provide Malaysians from all backgrounds with more digital training opportunities, Google Cloud, CloudMile and Trainocate are making five digital learning paths available at no cost.

“Accessible through the GoCloud programme — which aims to upskill 300,000 Malaysians by 2026 — the learning paths consist of online courses to help individuals better apply generative AI, data analytics and cloud-based productivity tools.”

Learners who complete the five learning paths will earn digital skills badges that they can share on their resumes and extended 30-day access to more learning paths at no cost.

Google said this is built on Gemilang, a digital training programme that has provided 31,000 Google Career Certificate scholarships to less fortunate individuals in partnership with educational institutions and non-profits.

“This helps Malaysians earn professional certifications — at no cost — for entry-level jobs in high-demand fields such as data analytics, IT support as well as e-commerce and digital marketing.”

Besides this, the government and Google Cloud will embark on joint AI launchpad initiatives to create new jobs, enhance public service delivery and help local companies tap into global markets.

Google will also support the government’s refinement of its existing Cloud First Policy for Malaysia, contributing policy expertise and its Secure AI Framework to account for the latest advancements in cloud computing and AI.

This reinforces the government’s efforts to prioritise the use of resilient, cost-efficient, and innovation-driven cloud services over capital-intensive on-premise systems, while aligning with global best practices on data privacy and security standards.

Lesson learnt, Awantec picks up the pieces and moves on
