Blazing New Trails with the Spirit of the Fire Horse


As we gallop into the year of the Fire Horse, we embrace a celestial symbol of indomitable spirit, blistering speed, and the courage to blaze new trails. This energy perfectly mirrors our current momentum as we accelerate Malaysia’s deep-tech ecosystem and solidify our role in technological diplomacy.

This inaugural issue of e-Communique 2026 captures MIMOS’ high-velocity start to the year, featuring landmark milestones such as the MyBISB-Zetrix blockchain partnership, MIVSB’s global market expansion, and the establishment of a systematic innovation ecosystem following our momentous ISO 56001 certification. Central to this drive is MIMOS’ 2026 go-to-market strategy, which focuses on promoting MIMOS technologies ready for commercialisation under the RMK-12 initiative, ensuring our R&D translates directly into national economic impact.

Setting a tone of purpose and resilience, this edition also celebrates our unity from the competitive camaraderie of MIMOSlympics 2025 and the cultural vibrancy of our Chinese New Year celebration, to the communal support of the Jualan Rahmah MADANI. Within these pages, expect a comprehensive look at how MIMOS is translating sophisticated R&D into impactful solutions, ensuring that the spirit of the Fire Horse inspires every breakthrough we achieve together in the year ahead.
