on

JOHOR BAHRU, Malaysia, July 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Delta Electronics, a global leader in power management and smart green solutions, today officially opened its new office in Johor Bahru, expanding its presence in Malaysia beyond its existing operations in Petaling Jaya and Penang. The new office reflects Delta’s long-term commitment to the Malaysian market and positions the company to better support customers and partners across the country’s fast-growing southern economic corridor.

The expansion comes as Malaysia continues to attract investment across data centres, advanced manufacturing, and digital infrastructure. As these sectors grow, organizations require resilient, energy-efficient infrastructure to support higher power demands, greater automation, and increasingly AI-driven operations. Delta is well positioned to help customers address these challenges through its integrated portfolio of power, cooling, automation, and digital infrastructure solutions.

Strategically located in the Southern Industrial and Logistics Clusters (SiLC), Iskandar Puteri, the new Johor Bahru office places Delta within a rapidly growing industrial hub and the Johor-Singapore economic corridor, enabling closer engagement with customers and partners as investment in the region accelerates.

“Malaysia is in a new phase of growth as AI, digital infrastructure, and advanced manufacturing reshape the country’s industrial landscape,” said Eng Yong Ch’ng, Country Manager, Delta Electronics Malaysia. “As organizations scale these investments, the focus is no longer just on expanding capacity, but on building infrastructure that is resilient, energy efficient, and ready for future demands. Our new Johor Bahru office strengthens our ability to support customers and partners as they accelerate this transformation.”

Delta Future Forward 2026

Further reinforcing its commitment to Malaysia, Delta will host Delta Future Forward 2026 in Kuala Lumpur on July 30. The forum will bring together leading professionals from across the industry to discuss how Malaysia can build the ecosystem needed to support the next phase of AI-driven growth.

Centered around the theme Building a resilient, energy-efficient future, the forum will focus on the critical infrastructure required for long-term AI growth. There will be dialogues exploring resilient power infrastructure, advanced cooling technologies, intelligent manufacturing, and how robust supply chains must work together to build a scalable, efficient, and sustainable AI ecosystem.

“Malaysia’s growing investments in AI and digital infrastructure are creating new opportunities for organizations across industries,” said Jason Yuan, President, Southeast Asia and ANZ, Delta Electronics. “At Delta, we believe long-term success will depend on how power, cooling, automation, and manufacturing capabilities come together as an integrated ecosystem. Through Delta Future Forward 2026, we look forward to bringing together industry leaders to exchange ideas, foster collaboration, and help customers build resilient and energy-efficient infrastructure for the future.”

Discussions at Delta Future Forward 2026 will focus on what it takes to support AI growth at scale, from data centre infrastructure and energy efficiency to advanced manufacturing, supply chain resilience, and the broader ecosystem needed to strengthen Malaysia’s position in the regional AI value chain.

Attendees will have the opportunity to explore demonstrations of AI data centres, microgrid-to-data centre energy systems, and smart manufacturing technologies, providing a closer look at how these solutions are applied in real-world environments.

STEPHEN A. SMITH ADDRESSES WHITE HOUSE DINNER ATTENDANCE, REAFFIRMS COMMITMENT TO HBCUs AND PROTECTING CORPORATE INVESTMENT IN BLACK EDUCATION

Published

on

By

NEW YORK, Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Stephen A. Smith, media mogul, New York Times bestselling author, and proud 1991 graduate of Winston-Salem State University, is addressing the public discussion surrounding his decision to attend a White House dinner with President Donald Trump, emphasizing his commitment to the long-term financial stability of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

For Smith, the decision was rooted in a commitment to institutions that have educated generations of Black leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, and public servants.

“I will always advocate for HBCUs and the students whose futures depend on them,” Smith said. “My reason for attending the White House dinner was to discuss the challenges these institutions face in securing long-term funding and to make the case that corporate America must continue to invest in them.”

Smith acknowledged federal support through the FUTURE Act while expressing concern that political tensions surrounding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) could discourage private companies from supporting HBCUs. He maintains that these institutions deserve sustained corporate partnerships, philanthropic contributions, and public investment.

“If we truly believe in free-market capitalism, businesses should be able to support educational institutions and charitable causes without fear of criticism or repercussions,” Smith said. “HBCUs have made extraordinary contributions to this country. They deserve sustained public and private investment.”

Ashley Christopher, Esq., Founder and CEO of the HBCU Week Foundation, recognized Smith’s advocacy and decision to engage with the administration.

“Stephen A. Smith has been a powerful advocate for HBCUs, using his platform and influence to shine a national spotlight on our institutions,” expressed Christopher, “His continued support of HBCU Week helps advance our mission of connecting students with life-changing educational opportunities, and we are proud to have him as our ambassador.”

Since Smith became an HBCU Week Ambassador in 2019, the initiative has facilitated more than 15,000 on-the-spot college acceptances and raised and awarded more than $150 million in scholarships, according to the HBCU Week Foundation.

As public discussion continues, Smith is emphasizing the importance of ensuring HBCUs have the resources and partnerships needed to educate future generations and expand opportunities for students.
