Opportunities emerge for SMEs in Johor-Singapore SEZ: Maybank

The SEZ is expedcted to boost exchange of trade, labour and investments.

Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) stand to benefit from the opportunities arising from the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (SEZ), according to Maybank.

Speaking at the Maybank Johor-Singapore Access conference recently, Maybank country CEO for Singapore, Alvin Lee, noted how the bank will play a significant role in the growth of the Malaysia-Singapore corridor.

Lee said they aim to continue facilitating cross-border business services, solutions, and digital networks to support clients’ business needs.

Maybank had previously identified six key catalysts supporting a successful implementation of Johor-Singapore SEZ, including strong backing from the Malaysian King and both governments.

“This will further enhance the economic ecosystems of both countries, foster positive synergies across various sectors, and strengthen economic connectivity and cooperation,” said Lee.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
