The document is an invitation to attend a Commercialisation Lab hosted by AIM, a Malaysian government agency, to facilitate the commercialization of 43 innovations. The 3-day lab will involve presentations about the innovations to interested businesses. Those interested can then commit to further stages to license the innovations with support from AIM to overcome challenges in bringing the products to market. Attendees are encouraged to find new opportunities to grow their businesses and generate revenue through commercializing the innovations.

Dear Sir/Madam,
Re. INVITATION TO COMMERCIALISATION LAB
The business environment is getting tougher and globalisation means that if your
customers are not satisfied they can easily go to China, Vietnam, Europe or the USA
to find products and services to fulfil their needs. Malaysian businesses now need to
fight and work harder just to survive and keep pace with the rapidly changing world.
To be successful and stay one step ahead of the competition, companies need to be
willing to adapt, push boundaries and explore new ways of fulfilling their customers’
needs; they need to innovate. Innovation can create new wealth for businesses
through revenue generation and cost savings; innovation is the defining factor
between being an industry leader, and being part of the chasing pack.
AIM (Agensi Inovasi Malaysia), a statutory body managed by the PMO (Prime
Minister’s Office), has been mandated with two key tasks, namely to facilitate wealth
creation through innovation, and to boost the innovation eco-system. To facilitate
wealth creation AIM wants to introduce innovations to Malaysian businesses to assist
them to grow. AIM has identified 43 innovations that solve problems and fufill the
needs faced by companies and their customers today.
Each of the 43 innovations clearly address and relieve “pain points” that are felt by
the relevant markets. Offering these innovations to the market would provide
companies with a clear advantage over their competitors and allow them to
differentiate themselves from other industry players.
AIM is seeking interested parties who are keen to grow their business, generate new
revenue and become industry leaders to commercialise the 45 innovations. We
would like to offer you the opportunity to supply new products and services to your
customers; products and services that will offer potential profits for you, and deliver
benefits for your customers.
To facilitate the process and enhance the success rate AIM is conducting a
Commercialisation Lab for the 43 innovations. During the Commercialisation Lab the
owners of the innovations and the interested parties will:
1. Learn more about the innovations
2. Build a business case for the innovations
3. Discuss and agree licensing/purchase terms for the innovations
4. Develop a detailed roadmap that specifies the steps that need to be taken,
and the milestones that need to be achieved to bring the innovation to the
market

2. The first stage of the Lab, Introduction to the Innovations, will be a 3-day process that
will consist of presentations by the innovation owners and display booths where you
can touch, feel and hold the innovations as well as discuss them with the owners.
Please view the attached agenda for further details on Stage 1 of the Lab.
Following Stage 1 of the Lab, interested parties will be asked to identify which
innovations they are interested in commercialising and to commit to Stages 2-4 of the
Lab which will take place over a duration of four consecutive working weeks. In
return for their commitment interested parties will be given access to regulators;
financers such as banks, VCs, and Angel Investors; potential customers; lawyers;
government; and the innovation owners. The purpose of the Lab is to rapidly and
effectively overcome all of the hinderances and difficulties that the interested parties
will face when commercialising the innovations and allow them to exploit the full
potential of the innovations.
We encourage you to take this opportunity to attend Stage 1 of the
Commercialisation Lab and look for new products or services that will give you an
advantage over your competitors and generate new revenue. Some information on
each of the 45 innovations can be found at www.comlab.inovasimalaysia.com.
We look forward to meeting you at the Commercialisation Lab.
Yours sincerely,
Dato’ Dr. Kamal Jit Singh
CEO
