MALAYSIA ACHIEVES ITS HIGHEST RANKING IN DELOITTE’S TECHNOLOGY FAST 500 ASIA PACIFIC PROGRAM

MALAYSIA, 1 December 2011 – Deloitte Malaysia today announced that MDT Innovations Sdn Bhd is Malaysia’s fastest growing technology company for this year’s Deloitte Technology Fast 500 Asia Pacific program, the 10th edition of this competition which ranks the region’s 500 fastest growing technology firms.

Deloitte said Malaysia-based MDT Innovations, a specialist in Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology and application solutions grew by 3130% in revenue over a three-year period. Average revenue of the Top 500 firms achieved 476%, a considerable increase from 2010’s 374% and 2009’s 361%.

“At #12 in overall rankings, MDT Innovations has established itself in a unique league with the highest growth technology growth companies in Asia Pacific. This year’s results support the trend line of strong performance for the information and communications technology (ICT) subsector in Malaysia. Digitization and convergence of Internet, mobile communications, digital media, IT systems integration, and component / device manufacturing have allowed this industry to flourish, as demonstrated by Malaysia’s Technology Fast 500 award results since 2008. A combination of government investments and its positive attitude toward ICT, an educated workforce, base ICT infrastructure, and increasing consumer and SME broadband penetration, have all positively contributed to an emerging, and increasingly vibrant ICT sector in Malaysia. We expect this trend line to continue,” said John E Goeres, Industry Leader of Deloitte Southeast Asia’s Technology, Media and Telecommunications (TMT) practice.

As the fastest growing technology company in Malaysia, MDT Innovations’ competitive advantage can be traced to solid R&D investments and a track-record of RFID engineering competencies stemming from early involvement in the design and development of advanced display products and RF components.
