On 9 June 2026, Hyperlokal AI FEST 2026, organized by the Small and Medium Enterprises Association of Malaysia (SAMENTA), was successfully held at MDEC, Medini Digital Hubs, Menara IIB, Iskandar Puteri. The event brought together business owners, SME representatives, and industry professionals to explore how AI can be applied in business operations, marketing, customer engagement, and business growth.
According to the organizer, Hyperlokal AI Fest 2026 is a nationwide movement designed to bring practical, business-ready AI directly to SMEs across Malaysia. The series aims to cover 50 cities nationwide, and the Johor edition is one of its stops, with a focus on hyperlocal access, real implementation, and inclusive digital transformation. By bringing AI closer to SMEs in secondary cities and industrial hubs, the initiative aims to remove barriers to entry and ensure that more businesses are able to keep pace with the AI era.
NEWPAGES was pleased to participate in the Johor edition of this event and would like to thank the organizer for providing this meaningful platform, as well as arranging a dedicated NEWPAGES booth. This gave our team the opportunity to engage directly with entrepreneurs and share solutions related to AI and business digitalization. On the event day, NEWPAGES also provided on-site consultation for entrepreneurs who were interested in learning more about AI transformation.
In addition, a NEWPAGES representative also shared on the topic “Winning More Customers in the AI Era”, discussing how customer behaviour in searching for suppliers is changing in the AI era, and how businesses can improve their online visibility and customer acquisition opportunities.
NEWPAGES would like to thank SAMENTA, MDEC, and the supporting partners for their efforts and support in making this event possible. The event provided more SMEs with the opportunity to understand the practical applications of AI in business, while encouraging networking and knowledge exchange. As Hyperlokal AI Fest 2026 continues to reach more cities across Malaysia, NEWPAGES will continue to keep pace with AI and digitalization trends, and as a corporate digitalization solutions provider, support SMEs in enhancing their online visibility and digital competitiveness.
