Cradle Live! Startup ASEAN Summit

Cradle LIVE! is Malaysia’s flagship startup and innovation festival organised by Cradle Fund, aimed at connecting entrepreneurs, investors, corporates, and policymakers from across Southeast Asia.

The event positions Malaysia as a key player in the regional startup ecosystem, bringing together leading voices and emerging founders to discuss growth, funding, and innovation opportunities within ASEAN and beyond.

The festival, themed “Scaling Beyond Borders,” focuses on helping startups expand across markets and build regional collaborations. Over several days, it features keynote sessions, fireside chats, exhibitions, and networking activities designed to inspire and equip founders for cross-border success. It also highlights Cradle’s alumni and Malaysian innovation stories, showcasing local talent to regional and global audiences.

More than just a conference, Cradle LIVE! serves as an ongoing platform for engagement through workshops, open days, and ecosystem programmes held throughout the year. It reflects Cradle’s continued mission to empower startups, strengthen partnerships, and accelerate Malaysia’s role as a hub for entrepreneurship and innovation in ASEAN.
