Dato’ Seri Ivan Teh
Dato’ Seri Ivan Teh founded Fusionex with the vision of solving the most complex problems faced by businesses through the development and innovation of more “humanized” and intuitive software and technology.
At incorporation, Fusionex lacked a track record, brand presence, or funding. Nevertheless, Dato’ Seri Ivan persevered, almost exhausting his personal savings to fund the start-up. He knocked on doors and focused on providing business value through Fusionex’s products.
Today, Fusionex is listed on the London Stock Exchange and is one of the largest and most successful ASEAN-originating software companies in the region. It also enjoys global recognition, winning many awards and accolades. In 2012, it won the prestigious Microsoft Global Business Intelligence Partner of the Year award, beating more than 3,000 companies across 142 countries. This was an award that no other Malaysian or ASEAN ICT player had ever won.
A strong advocate of not resting on one’s laurels and passionately driven to make a positive difference, Ivan recently launched Fusionex’s Big Data solution, aptly named GIANT – an all-encompassing solution with the level of comprehensiveness that is the first ever to be developed by an Asian company.
Dato’ Seri Ivan was recently invited to join Malaysia’s Big Data Analytics Advisory Task Force, which will assist the Malaysian Government in developing its National Big Data Analytics Framework.
The genesis of Fusionex occurred during a badminton game among friends. Datuk Teh recognized the pervasive problems across industries and envisioned a better way forward. Despite initial scepticism and the solitary pursuit of clients, Datuk Teh persevered, gradually gaining traction and forming the foundation of Fusionex with a team that remains integral to its success.
Nicknamed the ‘Office of Superheroes,’ Fusionex’s workspace reflects a blend of futurism and nostalgic comic book imagery. However, beyond the veneer of playfulness, Fusionex’s team of over 550 staff toils diligently, driven by a mission to confront real-world problems using technology and innovation.
Fusionex is not merely an inventor but a problem-solver. It leverages data technology to provide actionable insights for clients across diverse industries. By combining technological prowess with consultative approaches, Fusionex empowers clients to navigate complex challenges and plan effectively for the future.
With an illustrious client roster that includes Starwood, Marriot, American Airlines, Dell, and Malaysia Airlines, Fusionex stands as a beacon of innovation, delivering cutting-edge solutions tailored to each client’s unique needs.
For Datuk Seri Ivan Teh, Fusionex’s success is not measured by sales figures but by its ability to catalyze job creation, foster creativity, and embody excellence at the intersection of business and technology—a testament to the transformative power of visionary leadership and technological innovation.
