VFive Group demonstrates commitment to nurturing Malaysian technical skills and accelerating the adoption of advanced technology through its participation in the National Professional Engineers Day (HPTN) 2026. As the exclusive National Strategic Partner for HPTN 2026, VFive Group aims to strengthen the country's technical workforce development and technological innovation ecosystem.

The company's founding chairman and managing director, Mohd Syafiq Abdullah, emphasized that the current industry landscape requires not only competent technical skills but also the ability to adapt to changing technology, automation, digital systems, and artificial intelligence. HPTN 2026 serves as a platform to connect industry players, educational institutions, professional bodies, and the next-generation workforce in efforts to strengthen Malaysia's technical talent ecosystem.

Mohd Syafiq Abdullah stated that this strategic engagement reflects the company's strong commitment to driving technical skills development, fostering technology innovation, and enhancing Malaysia's competitive edge holistically. By participating in HPTN 2026, VFive Group opens new avenues for Bumiputera companies to improve their capacity and competitiveness at a higher level.

The company's involvement as a National Strategic Partner was acknowledged through the presentation of an award certificate to its Chief Executive Officer, Noorazly Ja'alam, at the HPTN 2026 kickoff event held in Kuching, Sarawak. With themes such as "Engineering the Future," HPTN 2026 is scheduled to take place on December 1 and 2 at the Borneo Convention Centre in Kuching, Sarawak.

VFive Group's involvement spans various sectors, including construction, facility management, information technology, and manpower, which are increasingly reliant on technologies such as AI, Internet of Things (IoT), Building Information Modelling (BIM), Digital Twin, and automation. Mohd Syafiq Abdullah stated that the application of technology must keep pace with workforce development to increase project productivity, efficiency, and quality.
