Cradle LIVE! Summit 2026 Opens Registration for Regional Startup Growth

Cradle Fund Sdn Bhd (Cradle) has officially opened registration for the Cradle LIVE! Summit 2026. Hosted at The Arch Galeries in Kuala Lumpur, the event serves as a platform for startup founders, investors, corporate leaders, and ecosystem participants from Malaysia and the broader ASEAN region to convene.

The summit will feature more than 20 distinct sessions focused on innovation, funding strategies, and regional market expansion. According to the original publisher, the event is designed to stimulate investment and accelerate the commercialisation of new technologies. By facilitating these interactions, the summit aims to strengthen strategic collaborations among key stakeholders in the startup ecosystem.

Operating under the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MOSTI), Cradle is the agency tasked with the development of the national startup ecosystem. The Cradle LIVE! Summit 2026 is built around the theme "Build in Malaysia, For ASEAN & Beyond," aligning with Malaysia’s stated goal of becoming a premier regional startup hub.

This summit plays a critical role in Malaysia's broader national strategy to elevate its position within the global startup landscape. By providing a dedicated space for networking and knowledge sharing, the event supports the country's objective to rank among the world's top startup ecosystems by 2030. For local entrepreneurs, the summit provides a structured environment to secure the resources and partnerships necessary for scaling operations beyond domestic borders.
