Microsoft today announced the launch of “AI for Malaysia’s Future,” (AIForMYFuture) a new initiative aimed at equipping 800,000 Malaysians with skills in AI by the end of 2025. The announcement was made at Microsoft Cloud and AI Summit Malaysia, which was graced by YB Gobind Singh Deo, Minister of Digital Malaysia.

AI skilling

AIForMYFuture supports broader efforts by the Government of Malaysia to upskill and reskill the Malaysian workforce and ensuring a robust talent pipeline for AI-related jobs. This includes working closely with Malaysia’s soon-to-be-launched National AI Office (NAIO), led by the Ministry of Digital, in advancing the AI agenda through cross-sector collaborations.

Through AIForMYFuture, Microsoft will collaborate with a broad cross-section of stakeholders including government, industry, education, and civil society to drive AI skilling opportunities at all levels of society. It will offer tailored learning experiences for diverse groups of people – from government officials and civil servants, professionals in key industries, teachers, students, underserved and marginalized communities, to general job seekers and employees looking to upskill.
