  "summary": "Dana Impak, a venture arm of Khazanah Nasional Bhd, has allocated RM2.6 billion for investments in around 130 Malaysian and Malaysian-linked companies, along with supporting over 4,200 talent, according to a recently released report. The report highlights the importance of a whole-of-Malaysia approach to support the growth of Malaysian companies and entrepreneurs, with the government, investors, fund managers, industry partners, and institutions working together to strengthen Malaysia's firms across their growth cycles. Since 2024, Dana Impak has focused on three key areas: venture capital and startup ecosystem, mid-tier companies, and semiconductor and advanced manufacturing. Under the Ministry of Finance's GEAR-uP initiative, Dana Impak aims to continue mobilising capital and partnerships to support more Malaysian companies and entrepreneurs in scaling, competing globally, and capturing a greater share of the value they create.",
