The Malaysian Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCCIM) celebrated the achievements of 31 outstanding young entrepreneurs at the Young Entrepreneurs Super Model Awards 2025, held at the Grand Nexus Ballroom in Kuala Lumpur.
This year’s edition marked a significant milestone with the introduction of the ASEAN Young Entrepreneurs Super Model Awards, highlighting 10 winners whose businesses have demonstrated exceptional growth and impact across the region. The awards reflect Malaysia’s chairmanship of ASEAN in 2025 and underscore the chamber’s commitment to promoting regional cooperation and showcasing the next generation of leaders.
The winners, representing diverse industries such as technology, logistics, education, construction, publishing, tourism, and manufacturing, embody the innovation, resilience, and leadership needed to thrive in a fast-changing global economy. Notably, this year also saw the recognition of a female entrepreneur, signalling a more inclusive and diverse direction for Malaysia’s business community.
“These awardees are not only successful entrepreneurs, but also role models shaping Malaysia’s future business ecosystem. Their achievements remind us that true success comes from perseverance, collaboration, and a commitment to meaningful impact,” said Datuk Low Yip Hing, President of ACCCIM.

This year’s winners’ stories have been compiled into a special publication to motivate aspiring entrepreneurs, showing that success is a journey of resilience, creativity, and growth.
As Malaysia prepares for “Visit Malaysia Year 2026,” ACCCIM leaders highlighted the critical role of youth entrepreneurs in driving innovation in tourism, retail, and creative industries. They also emphasised the importance of ASEAN collaboration, given that ASEAN accounts for a quarter of Malaysia’s total trade.
The evening’s celebrations, supported by sponsors including YYC Advisors, Tay Chamber, CEOMAN, and SOMO, paid tribute not only to the winners but to the collective spirit of Malaysia’s entrepreneurial community.
