Malaysia: Hiring, Funding And Leadership Signals
Every update we hold that a source placed in Malaysia: 26 updates from 12 sources, across 25 employers. Each one links to the filing or report that makes the claim. These are counts of documents we have read, so they measure what we have found and can cite, not everything that happened. They also include the routine officer filings the tracker sets aside by default, so its figure for this place is lower than the one above.
Covering 4 Mar 2021 to 19 Aug 2026
$95,276,000 disclosed across 3 funding updates. All 3 funding updates state a US dollar amount. We leave out amounts in other currencies rather than convert them at a rate nobody published.
