Selangor's flagship tech convention, formerly SDEC, has rebranded to AiSEM@Selangor (AI & Semiconductor Summit) for its 11th edition, running 14–17 October 2026 at KLCC and Grand Hyatt Kuala Lumpur. Organised by Sidec and ASEM under the Selangor state government, it features 60+ international speakers including former TSMC co-COO Dr Chiang Shang Yi, FuriosaAI CEO June Paik, and AWS's Umar Shah, plus 150+ exhibitors across the AI and semiconductor supply chain.

Why: Malaysian builders, founders, and job-seekers in AI and semiconductors should treat AiSEM@Selangor as a concrete networking and pipeline event: 150+ exhibitors and investor-facing sessions at KLCC make it a place to meet semiconductor and AI infrastructure players, including AWS semiconductor cloud leads and chip design firms. If you build AI tooling, agents, or infrastructure in Malaysia, the shift from smart-city/e-commerce to chips and AI infrastructure signals where state funding and attention are moving.
