Razer sees Malaysia as “a natural springboard” for its fintech activities in the region, especially since it was where Razer Pay was launched.

The gaming company will work together with the Malaysian government and industry partners to develop the country’s tech talent. Razer plans to collaborate with higher learning institutes, provide training and mentorship opportunities, and offer exchange programs across its regional offices.

It’s also looking to share its expertise in esports with Malaysia’s gaming community.
