QI GROUP AND QIU ANNOUNCE RM3MIL INNOVATION INVESTMENT

In a joint transformative leap between the QI Group, a multinational conglomerate, and Quest International University (QIU), the parties entered into a two-year journey with an RM3 million investment in cutting-edge projects.

This collaboration was crowned with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding yesterday. We were honoured to welcome the QI Group’s co-founder Joseph Bismark to the campus, where he signed the MoU with QIU Chief Operating Officer Nicholas Goh.

Nicholas emphasized the evolving role of universities in the 21st-century innovation ecosystem, saying “Basic research, interdisciplinarity, and cross-border collaboration are critical success factors between universities, enterprises, and governments.

Kuna Senathirajah, Group Managing Director of QI Group, unveiled the ambit of this investment — kicking off with the Global Events Management System (GEMS). This innovative platform promises unprecedented cost efficiencies and operational consistencies for both participants and organizers across the QI Group and QIU’s diverse range of events.

Additionally, a pioneering AI Project is set to enhance corporate efficiency and staff capabilities. The introduction of an AI Upline system will provide sophisticated, gamified business coaching, training and empowerment in their ventures. QI Group is also modernizing its financial platforms, including the Digital Wallet and Digital Payment Systems, to stay ahead in the rapidly evolving digital finance landscape.

The MOU between QI Group and QIU will drive the joint development of event management systems, platforms for distributors, and solutions to improve business processes. Both entities will contribute their expertise, resources, and knowledge to ensure the successful creation of these innovative solutions,” added Senathirajah.

In a strategic collaboration for Educational Excellence, QIU will leverage QI Group’s professional expertise to establish a comprehensive educational program. This program aims to equip QIU students and graduates with world-class skills in cloud technologies and cybersecurity, anticipating the demands of the future job market by 2024.

With these initiatives, QI Group and QIU reaffirm their commitment to innovation and excellence. Dedicated teams will manage the rollout of these projects, setting a new standard for operational efficiency and security in the industry. The organizations are poised to deliver top-tier service and support to their global network of customers and partners, ushering in a new era of collaboration and progress.
