2. 1. About MSC Malaysia Innovation Voucher Programme
MSC Malaysia Innovation Voucher programme (herein referred as “Programme”) aims to increase
collaboration between Malaysia’s public and private Institutions of Higher Learning (IHLs) / Research
Institutions (RIs) / approved Research and Innovation entities with MSC Malaysia Status Companies,
towards creating a cultural shift in the business community's approach to innovation.
The Programme is established by Multimedia Development Corporation Sdn Bhd (“MDeC”) to provide
assistance to MSC Malaysia Status Companies to defray some of the cost incurred in procuring technical
and support services from certain Malaysia’s public and private Institutions of Higher Learning (IHLs) /
Research Institutions (RIs) / approved Research and Innovation entities as identified by MDeC (“Service
Provider”) in providing solutions to business or technical problems as well as developing innovative
prototypes, products and/or services. Such activities are expected to lead to an increase in the creation of
Intellectual Property (IP). The Innovation Voucher is a subsidy valued at RM8,000.
2. Key Objectives of MSC Malaysia Innovation Voucher Programme
The Programme is designed to meet the following key objectives:
1. To increase the number of collaborations in research and innovation between MSC Malaysia
companies and Service Provider.
2. To increase the number of innovative proof-of-concepts (POCs), products, services and
solutions from MSC Malaysia. Potentially, it will lead to the increase in technology
commercialisation and sales growth of the companies.
3. To increase the number of IP (intellectual property) creation.
4. To support the development and strengthening of triple helix model fundamental to National
Innovation, contributing to national competitiveness.
As the Programme adopts open innovation, it allows companies:
1. To concentrate on running their business while the Service Provider deliver the product or
solution that could take their business to the next level
2. To shorten time-to-market for new products and services
3. To improve their technological and innovation capability resulting from the technology transfer
from Service Provider to the companies
4. To Increase R&D&Innovation collaboration between companies and Service Provider
5. To tap into subject matter experts which may reside outside of the company
3. Eligibility Criteria
At the time of applications, the following eligibility criteria must be fulfilled:
1. The Applicant must be a Local MSC Malaysia Status Company, with at least 51% Malaysian
