About this Event
Join us for Cradle LIVE! Open Day May 2026, an immersive one-day session designed for aspiring founders, early-stage startups, and anyone interested in exploring Malaysia’s startup ecosystem.
Organised by Cradle Fund, this Open Day offers participants the opportunity to gain insights into startup development, funding opportunities, and the support available to help turn innovative ideas into successful ventures.
The event will feature sharing sessions from Cradle grant recipients, introductions to Cradle funding programmes, and insights into legal due diligence and startup support services.
