About Event

DiVA

Seven startups have spent the last six months immersed in the SDEC's DiVA programme, and now they're ready to share what they've built. This Demo Day is your chance to see their progress firsthand - from the challenges they tackled to the solutions they've developed. Each team will present their journey, giving you insight into how they've evolved their ideas into tangible ventures.

SaSAR

SaSAR, a flagship program by SDEC under the Sarawak Digital & Innovation Ecosystem, supports local software startups, ISVs, and SaaS providers to accelerate growth through user acquisition, revenue generation, market expansion, and investment readiness. Its goal is to drive scalable software solutions and boost SME digital adoption through targeted commercialisation and growth strategies.

Join us at TEGAS Digital Village in Kuching on February 2nd, 2026, for an hour of back-to-back presentations. Whether you're an investor looking for promising opportunities, a fellow founder curious about the programme, or someone interested in Sarawak's startup ecosystem, you'll get to see what happens when founders dedicate half a year to refining their vision.

Also the afternoon session will kickstart at 2.00 PM, located at the Event Space on the first floor! Stay along to listen in and engage with experienced VC and hear them pitch their funds to you.
