IPOH, July 10 (Bernama) -- As of the first quarter of this year, the National Information Dissemination Centre (NADI) in this state has successfully mentored 2,396 entrepreneurs as part of its efforts to strengthen entrepreneurship and the digital economy.
State Communications, Multimedia and NGO Committee chairman Mohd Azlan Helmi said this involved the participation of 269,005 community members through a variety of training programmes.
“To date, NADI e-commerce entrepreneurs in Perak have, on average, recorded a 70 per cent increase in sales compared to before utilising the platform as a sales medium,” he said during the Perak state assembly sitting at Bangunan Darul Ridzuan here today.
Mohd Azlan said that NADI, formerly known as the Digital Economy Centre (PEDi), has collaborated with various strategic partners such as the Malaysian Technology Development Corporation (MTDC), TikTok and universities to benefit communities beyond the NADI network.
“NADI is also planning to provide cloud-oriented programmes that users can access without the need to be physically present at the centre,” he said in response to a question from Berhanudin Ahmad (PN-Manong) regarding the income of entrepreneurs in PEDi and its efforts to expand its benefits.
