What is Career Potential Unlocked?
Ever had a 1-on-1 conversation with another Muslim tech friend about work, and ended it feeling seen and energised to take the next step in your career?
That is what the CPU series is about. We are spotlighting the journeys of our very own Malay/Muslim tech professionals, and unveiling conversations about navigating the tech sector.
This series will focus on Malay/Muslim professionals with 5 - 10 years of experience working in the tech sector, or tech-adjacent roles elsewhere. Expect a Muslim-informed space that remains open to non-Malay/Muslim individuals looking for a different set of faces and perspectives.
