BlackBerry Expanding Operations In Malaysia
BlackBerry Limited is expanding its Secure Communications division’s Asia Pacific (APAC) regional headquarters in Malaysia scaling its presence across three strategic locations: Cyberjaya, central Kuala Lumpur, and Mont Kiara.
The expansion includes a new sales and marketing office, as well as a dedicated Regional Support Centre staffed by over 50 technical experts, enabling 24/7 support and professional services across the Asia-Pacific region.
“As Malaysia strengthens its position as a regional hub for digital resilience and innovation, we are proud to expand our APAC Secure Communications headquarters here – now with enhanced 24/7 support for a region tackling complex risks,” said Tash Stamatelos, Senior Vice President for BlackBerry in APAC. This expansion supports both BlackBerry’s regional growth strategy and Malaysia’s national priorities, including capacity building, enhanced disaster response, and the implementation of sovereign, military-grade communications to combat rising espionage.”
This announcement follows the Government of Canada’s commitment of CAD 3.9 million in multi-year investment for cybersecurity training at the Cybersecurity Centre of Excellence, announced at APEC in November 2024. The first phase of this program will commence in November 2025 with the globally recognized Certifications for Leadership in Cybersecurity (CLIC) course.
Additionally, a recent partnership with EC-Council will offer self-paced learning courses for Malaysian civil servants, further enhancing national cyber capabilities.
