The AI Centre of Excellence (AI CoE) by Presgo Gateways (iData) is Malaysia’s national initiative to drive the adoption of Hybrid Artificial Intelligence (AI), an emerging field that combines Machine Learning (ML) and Operational Research (OR) to enable smarter, faster and more ethical AI systems.
Collaborations
What is Hybrid AI?
Machine Learning (ML) + Operational Research (OR) = Hybrid AI
FEATURE 1
SmartER resource management
FEATURE 2
SMARTER urban planning
FEATURE 3
Real-time decision optimisation
FEATURE 4
Predictive maintenance
FEATURE 5
Data-driven governance
FEATURE 6
sustainable development
This fusion creates intelligent systems that can both learn and reason a leap beyond conventional AI.
Industry 5.0
To align AI CoE’s mission with the next industrial revolution focusing on human-centric, resilient, and sustainable technology integration.
Human-AI Collaboration
Tools that enhance, not replace, human capabilities such as AI-assisted enforcement, citizen engagement bots, and predictive urban planning.
Sustainability & ESG Integration
AI solutions that optimize resources, reduce waste, and support green initiatives
(e.g., smart waste management,
water quality prediction).
Resilient Infrastructure
Using AI to strengthen local industries against disruptions from logistics to city operations.
Cross-Sector Innovation
Embed AI into key Malaysian industries (transportation, tourism, enforcement, environment) under the mySmartCity ecosystem.

Our
Solutions
Talent Development
To nurture the next generation of AI professionals.
From students to engineers to decision-makers — who can design, implement, and manage intelligent systems that improve government, industry, and society.
Foundation → Intermediate → Advanced → Specialization
(e.g., AI for Enforcement, AI for IoT, AI for Smart Cities).
Sponsored fellowships or apprenticeships connecting local talent with live industry projects.
Jointly issued credentials (UTM + Funartech + Presgo) recognized by MDEC or national digital agencies.
Students and public-sector officers gain hands-on experience through sandbox projects
(AIRES routing, AEDES analytics, ezEYE dashboards, etc.).
Global Knowledge Transfer
To bring international best practices, frameworks, and tools from Canada and other global AI ecosystems into Malaysia — and vice versa.
Adaptation of Funartech’s proven AI frameworks (e.g., hybrid AI models, prescriptive analytics engines).
Collaborative research papers, patents, and innovation challenges with international universities.
An open learning hub where best practices, models, and case studies are documented and localized for Malaysian use.
Hybrid AI
To develop and promote AI systems that combine symbolic reasoning (expert systems, logic rules) and machine learning (deep learning, neural networks) for more reliable, explainable, and efficient AI solutions.
Integration of data-driven ML with rule-based logic to solve real government and industrial problems (e.g., enforcement prediction, flood monitoring, routing optimization).
Ensure transparency and accountability in AI-based decisions, especially for public sector applications.
Research and implementation of ethical frameworks aligning with national AI policy and governance standards.
Scalable hybrid pipelines integrating edge AI, cloud, and local inference for resource-efficient operations.
