Zetrix AI Berhad Annual Report 2025

STRATEGIES TO SUSTAIN VALUE CREATION (cont’d) LEVERAGING BLOCKCHAIN Zetrix AI’s Web3 focus remains a principal strategy in accelerating the Group’s ongoing shift towards becoming a market-agnostic global business, progressively decoupled from any specific geographical location. The Web3 strategy, powered by the Group’s Zetrix blockchain capabilities, is designed to provide services across regional and international markets, firmly entrenching Zetrix AI as a global player. The strategic transition from rebranding MYEG to Zetrix AI underscores the Group’s repositioning as a technologyfirst enterprise centred on AI and blockchain, reflecting its commitment to delivering borderless, innovation-driven solutions. This rebranding amplifies Zetrix AI’s long-term value creation strategy by aligning its identity more closely with its core technological strengths. Zetrix’s distinctive positioning as a Layer-1 blockchain platform, and the first to be integrated into China’s national blockchain network, further accentuates its commercial viability. This unique advantage enables the development of diverse applications, particularly those related to cross-border trade facilitation, supply chain digitalisation, and government-issued digital credentials. A key example is the integrated Digital ID Superapp, which leverages Zetrix blockchain infrastructure to securely enable digital identity management, thereby enhancing trust and interoperability in both domestic and international contexts. In further strengthening its global positioning, the World Bank Group via IFC announced an investment in expanding blockchainbased DPI applications and AI-enabled solutions across Malaysia and emerging ASEAN markets with Zetrix AI, underscoring international institutional confidence in Zetrix AI’s platform and reinforcing the Group’s capacity to scale trusted, interoperable digital infrastructure solutions worldwide. In parallel, the partnership with MIMOS Berhad to operationalise the MBI in FY2025 reinforces Zetrix AI’s strategic relevance in building a robust national blockchain ecosystem. With MBI, Zetrix AI is well-positioned to contribute to trusted public-sector digitalisation initiatives while also scaling innovations for global adoption. Zetrix AI’s increasing contributions attest to the platform’s strong market appeal and pave the way for future valueaccretive developments. Its strategic priority remains navigating the evolving global digital asset regulatory landscape, mitigating risks while leveraging opportunities to establish recurring, commercially viable income streams untethered from geographic constraints. Capital requirements for expansion continue to be funded through internally generated funds and external sources, where relevant. While blockchain technology is often perceived as energy-intensive, Zetrix AI’s new-generation blockchain solutions are significantly more energy-efficient than first-generation deployments. Kindly refer to the Group’s Sustainability Statement and Management Discussion and Analysis section of this report for specific details on this strategic priority. 58
