Malaysia’s Cybersecurity Leaders to Convene at the 34th Edition Cyber Security Summit Malaysia 2026

Summit to Bring Together More Than 150 CISOs, CIOs, Government Officials and Cybersecurity Leaders to Explore Identity, Intelligence and Resilience

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The 34th Edition Cyber Security Summit Malaysia 2026 will take place on 10 September 2026 at the InterContinental Kuala Lumpur, bringing together more than 150 senior cybersecurity leaders, CISOs, CIOs, government officials and technology decision-makers from across Malaysia’s public and private sectors. Held under the theme “Cyber Security Reimagined: Identity, Intelligence & Resilience”, the summit will provide a platform for industry leaders to discuss emerging threats, cybersecurity strategies, digital resilience and the technologies shaping Malaysia’s evolving security landscape. The event is organised by Exito Media Concepts.

The summit comes at a time when organisations across Malaysia are navigating an increasingly complex cyber threat landscape driven by digital transformation, cloud adoption, expanding attack surfaces and evolving regulatory requirements. As enterprises accelerate their digital initiatives, cybersecurity leaders are increasingly focused on strengthening identity security, protecting critical data, improving threat intelligence and building resilient digital infrastructure.

Malaysia’s digital economy continues to expand as organisations across financial services, retail, healthcare, government, IT, enterprise and other sectors adopt connected technologies and digital platforms. With cyber threats becoming more sophisticated, organisations are balancing innovation with data protection, regulatory compliance, identity management and operational resilience. This has made cybersecurity a strategic priority extending beyond traditional security functions and into enterprise-wide digital transformation.

The event comes at a time when identity has emerged as a critical component of enterprise security. Credential theft, multi-factor authentication bypasses and privilege escalation are creating new challenges for organisations operating across hybrid workforces, cloud platforms and increasingly distributed technology environments. As enterprises adopt Zero Trust architectures, cybersecurity leaders are also evaluating how identity and access management can be aligned with regulatory expectations and business requirements.

At the same time, artificial intelligence, cloud security, cyber resilience and emerging threats are reshaping how organisations approach cybersecurity. Security leaders are exploring ways to strengthen their defences through AI-driven security, Zero Trust frameworks, data protection, threat intelligence and resilient security architectures while preparing for an evolving regulatory environment.

The summit will provide an opportunity for senior executives, government representatives, cybersecurity experts and technology innovators to exchange insights, explore emerging solutions and discuss practical approaches to strengthening trust, resilience and secure digital transformation across Malaysia.

Event Overview

The 34th Edition Cyber Security Summit Malaysia 2026 is an invitation-only, in-person conference designed for senior cybersecurity, technology, risk, data and digital leaders from Malaysia’s public and private sectors.

Running from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, the summit will feature expert-led presentations, strategic discussions, panel sessions, technology showcases and curated networking opportunities designed to encourage knowledge sharing and collaboration between cybersecurity leaders and technology providers.

The summit will focus on emerging cybersecurity challenges and practical strategies across areas including threat intelligence, data protection, regulatory developments, AI-driven security, cloud security, Zero Trust and cyber resilience.

BingX Launches “Connect What’s Moving” to Bring Users Closer to Global Market Opportunities

Published

By

PANAMA CITY, Sept. 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — BingX, the world’s leading multi-asset trading platform, today announced “Connect What’s Moving,” a long-term strategic initiative to bring users closer to emerging opportunities as global markets start moving.

The initiative marks the next stage of BingX’s evolution from a crypto-native trading platform toward a broader multi-asset trading platform, reflecting a market reality in which opportunities increasingly emerge beyond the boundaries of any single asset class. At the center of the strategy is a simple idea: when markets move, opportunities move with them. “Connect What’s Moving” brings together timely market intelligence, broader trading access, and deeper context to help users discover what is gaining momentum, understand the forces behind it, and explore related opportunities across markets.

The strategy is built around three core pillars:

Faster – Discover and respond while it matters: BingX aims to identify meaningful market developments early and connect users with timely communications, relevant content, frequent campaigns and trading access while those developments remain relevant.Broader – Follow opportunities across markets: Major market stories rarely stay within a single asset class. By connecting assets and products across crypto and traditional finance, BingX enables users to follow where a story is moving and explore how its impact extends across markets.Deeper – Understand what matters: Beyond highlighting what is trending, BingX aims to help users understand why a movement matters and what may follow. Market insights, editorial content, spokesperson perspectives, and themed trading experiences provide context on the forces behind a trend and its connections to the wider market.

BingX’s growing TradFi offering provides a key foundation for this opportunity-driven approach. With more than 500 TradFi perpetual assets spanning stocks, forex, indices, and commodities, alongside deep liquidity, BingX gives users access to a broad range of markets through a single platform — enabling them to follow opportunities as market narratives evolve across asset classes.

“Users don’t experience markets in separate categories. They follow the stories, signals, and developments that matter to them,” said Kevin Lee, Chief Strategy Officer at BingX. “With ‘Connect What’s Moving,’ we are bringing together the speed to respond, the breadth to follow opportunities across markets, and the depth to understand what is driving them. Our ambition is to make BingX one of the first platforms users think of when global markets start moving, with access and context to make informed decisions.”

About BingX

Founded in 2018, BingX is the world’s leading multi-asset trading platform, serving more than 40 million users worldwide. From crypto to traditional markets, BingX connects users with a broad range of assets, markets, and opportunities through one unified trading platform.

From Singapore to the World: Quantum Heaps Appoints Three Enterprise Software Veterans to Lead Global Expansion

Published

on

By

Mark Stevens, Jeff Cosseboom and Andrew Garner join the leadership team to build global marketing and North American and EMEA operations.

SINGAPORE, Sept. 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Quantum Heaps, a Singapore-headquartered AI-native revenue technology company, today announced three senior executive appointments as it expands its global commercial operations across North America and EMEA. The company is building an alternative to the fragmented technology stack used to run B2B revenue, with its Unified Revenue Engine bringing CRM, prospecting, conversation intelligence, forecasting, enablement, analytics and commissions together on a single platform and common data model. Powered by Agent Q, the platform applies AI across the revenue lifecycle to increase productivity, improve predictability and accelerate revenue growth.

Mark Stevens joins as Chief Marketing Officer, Jeff Cosseboom as President, North America, and Andrew Garner as President, EMEA. The three executives will lead global marketing and the company’s North American and European operations as Quantum Heaps moves from product innovation to commercial scale. All three will report to Harsh Panwar, Founder & Chief Executive Officer of Quantum Heaps.

The appointments represent an inversion of the traditional enterprise software expansion model. Rather than a U.S. or European software company establishing Singapore operations to enter Asia, Quantum Heaps is building from its Singapore base and recruiting experienced enterprise software leaders to take the company into the world’s largest technology markets.

Stevens, Cosseboom and Garner bring decades of experience building categories, opening markets and scaling enterprise software businesses. All three also share experience at Vlocity, the industry cloud pioneer acquired by Salesforce in 2020 in a transaction valued at approximately $1.5 billion.

“Most software companies come to Singapore to sell into Asia. We are going the other way. Mark, Jeff and Andrew have already taken one company from start-up to a USD 1.5 billion exit, and they have chosen to do it again for a company headquartered in Singapore – Quantum Heaps,” said Panwar.

Mark Stevens, Chief Marketing Officer

Mark Stevens will lead Quantum Heaps’ global marketing, category development, positioning and go-to-market strategy. He brings more than 25 years of enterprise software experience across Amperity, Automation Anywhere, Salesforce, Vlocity, Oracle and Siebel, spanning marketing, business value, industry strategy and customer transformation.

“RevTech has an architectural problem, and the answer isn’t another AI tool bolted onto an already fragmented stack,” said Stevens. “Quantum Heaps is rethinking the architecture itself – unifying revenue execution around a single, AI-native platform designed to increase productivity, improve predictability and accelerate revenue growth.”

Jeff Cosseboom, President, North America

Jeff Cosseboom will lead Quantum Heaps’ commercial operations and expansion across North America. He brings more than three decades of enterprise software sales leadership, including senior roles at C3 AI, Salesforce/Vlocity, SAP and Siebel/Oracle.

“Revenue organizations have spent years adding specialized tools to solve individual problems, creating more integrations, data silos and complexity,” said Cosseboom. “Quantum Heaps changes that equation by bringing revenue execution together on one AI-native platform. That creates a significant opportunity in the North American enterprise market.”

Andrew Garner, President, EMEA

Andrew Garner will lead Quantum Heaps’ expansion across Europe, the Middle East and Africa. He brings more than two decades of enterprise software experience, including senior leadership roles at Salesforce and Vlocity, with experience building markets and strategic enterprise relationships across the UK, Nordics, Middle East and Africa.

“European enterprises are moving quickly on AI, but they are also becoming more disciplined about where it creates measurable business value,” said Garner. “Quantum Heaps starts from a different premise: unify the revenue environment and make AI native to how the organization operates.”

The appointments support Quantum Heaps’ expansion of its Unified Revenue Engine, which brings CRM, forecasting, conversation intelligence, enablement, commissions and other revenue workflows together on a common data model. Powered by Agent Q, the platform is designed to move beyond analyzing revenue activity to identifying signals and executing work across the revenue lifecycle.

Building Global Enterprise Software from Singapore

Founded in Singapore by Panwar, a former executive at Microsoft, Salesforce and SAP, Quantum Heaps is part of a new generation of AI-native companies seeking to build global enterprise software businesses from Asia.

The company will continue to operate from its Singapore headquarters while expanding its commercial presence across North America and EMEA.

About Quantum Heaps

Quantum Heaps is a Singapore-headquartered AI-native revenue technology company building the Unified Revenue Engine, a single platform designed to simplify the fragmented revenue technology stack. Powered by Agent Q, Quantum Heaps unifies revenue data and workflows to help organizations increase productivity, improve predictability and accelerate growth.
