About Intel Malaysia
 
Malaysia has been a home to one of Intel Corporation's overseas operations for more than three decades. In fact, the site in Penang was Intel Corporation's first overseas site which began operation in 1972 with around 100 employees.

About Intel MalaysiaSince then, the Penang site has played a key role in establishing Malaysia as a high technology center. Intel Malaysia went on to open an office in Kuala Lumpur in 1995 for sales and marketing operations. Subsequently, Intel Malaysia set up another of its assembly and test operations at a high-tech park in Kulim in 1996.

In 2001, Intel opened an office in Cyberjaya (located within the Malaysia Multimedia Super Corridor commonly known as MSC) which houses its software development operations. Intel Malaysia's workforce encompasses the staff strength in Penang, Kulim, Kuala Lumpur and Cyberjaya. It is Intel's most complex offshore site with multi functions—assembly & test, design & development and local & global support services. As a key part of Intel's global R&D operations, Intel Malaysia plays a key role in the production of the latest Intel products, as it moves up the value chain.

At the same time, Intel Malaysia works hard to be an asset to Penang and Malaysia by striving to improve mathematics, science, engineering and technology education, supporting community needs through giving and volunteerism; and strengthening nation-building in Malaysia.

To date, Intel has invested approximately USD 3.2 billion in Malaysia and has trained and employed thousands of talented local residents, strengthening Malaysia's economy and offering opportunities for hard working and talented Malaysians.
