Agoda, the digital travel platform, has extended its social impact initiative, Agoda Tech Camp Day, to Malaysia for the first time. The event, held on 7 November 2025, brought together more than 300 students from Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), Malaysia’s largest higher education institution. The two-day programme focused on equipping students with skills in artificial intelligence (AI) and other essential digital competencies.
The expansion into Malaysia marks a significant step for Agoda in its mission to empower the next generation of tech leaders. By providing hands-on experience and expert-led workshops, the initiative aims to bridge the gap between academic learning and industry demands. This approach is designed to prepare students for the rapidly evolving tech landscape, ensuring they are well-equipped to meet future challenges.
Agoda’s decision to host the event at UiTM underscores the institution’s pivotal role in Malaysia’s educational sector. The university’s large student body and focus on technology make it an ideal partner for such initiatives. By targeting students at this stage of their education, Agoda hopes to inspire and nurture future innovators who will contribute to the tech industry’s growth.
The programme’s success in Malaysia could pave the way for further expansions across the region, as Agoda continues to invest in educational initiatives that foster technological advancement and innovation.
