RM1 Billion NexQuantum AI Park Launched In Perak

IPOH, May 15 (Bernama) -- Cahya Suria Services Sdn Bhd and Suzhou EnnoThing Technology Co Ltd have formalised a strategic partnership through NexQuantum 1 Sdn Bhd to develop the NexQuantum artificial intelligence (AI) digital park in Perak.

According to the parties involved, the project is positioned as a future-ready digital infrastructure platform aimed at supporting advanced computing and digital services.

The project, valued at RM1 billion, is designed to support Perak’s digital ambitions, accelerate Malaysia’s digital transformation and progressively serve the wider ASEAN and Greater Asian digital economy.

Marked by the NexQuantum AI digital park strategic partnership ceremony in Ipoh, the collaboration combines Malaysian project development capabilities with international technological expertise to establish a high-value digital ecosystem focused on AI-ready infrastructure, cloud services, intelligent operations, sustainability, talent development and regional digital connectivity.

Under the broader masterplan, the NexQuantum AI digital park is envisioned as a long-term digital infrastructure platform comprising eight proposed data centre facilities, with NQ1 planned as the flagship project representing an estimated RM1 billion investment in Perak.

The project is intended to support next-generation digital demand, including AI computing, high-performance computing, secure data infrastructure, cloud services, cybersecurity and enterprise digital applications.

Cahya Suria Services Sdn Bhd and NexQuantum 1 Sdn Bhd group chief executive officer Ong Teng Boon said the AI digital park was not merely a local development or a single data centre project.

“We believe this creates a strong foundation for a project that is AI-ready, sustainable and aligned with Perak’s long-term economic transformation.

“We support the aspirations of Perak Sejahtera 2030 by helping to attract high-quality investment, encourage local vendor participation, support talent development and contribute to a more progressive, competitive and future-ready Perak,” he said at the launch ceremony here last night.

Raja Di Hilir Perak Raja Iskandar Dzurkarnain Sultan Idris Shah graced and officiated the launch.

Also present were Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad and State Infrastructure, Energy, Water and Public Transport Committee chairman Datuk Seri Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin.
