Kuala Lumpur, 23 April 2026: Evolution Commerce is proud to share that Dr. Esther Loo, Chief Digital and Transformation Officer, was awarded the AI Innovation Leadership Award at the recent Digital Transformation Summit Malaysia 2026.
Hosted by Exito Media Concepts, the summit brought together C-level executives, technology leaders, industry practitioners and solution providers to exchange insights on the future of enterprise technology. The gathering underscored Kuala Lumpur’s growing role as a regional hub for enterprise technology conversations.
The event was also strongly supported by Malaysia’s digital ecosystem, with strategic partners including the Ministry of Digital, Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC) and CyberSecurity Malaysia. The programme also featured an inaugural address by YBhg. Datuk Fabian Bigar, Secretary General of the Ministry of Digital, and an opening keynote on AI Nation 2030 by Sam Majid, Head of the National AI Office Malaysia (NAIO).
Held under the theme “Smart Investments. Scalable Tech. Stronger Security”, the summit featured relevant and refreshing discussions across enterprise AI, digital infrastructure, cybersecurity, cloud, intelligent automation and customer experience. The event also showcased several surprising and impactful innovations, reflecting how quickly technology is reshaping business operations and decision-making.
The recognition was especially meaningful as the award was presented by David Avrin, the summit’s Impact Speaker, whose session offered a sharp and pragmatic reminder that digital transformation should make it easier, not harder, for customers and teams to get things done.
The awards celebrated leadership across several categories, including Digital Infrastructure Visionary Award, AI Innovation Leadership Award, Cybersecurity Excellence Award, Digital Transformation Leader of the Year, Technology Strategist of the Year Award, and Women in Technology Leadership Award.
For Evolution Commerce, this recognition reinforces the company’s commitment to building practical, people-centred digital transformation across logistics, e-commerce, automation and talent development.
What This Recognition at Digital Transformation Summit Malaysia Means
Winning the AI Innovation Leadership Award at Digital Transformation Summit Malaysia 2026 places Evolution Commerce among a select group of organisations recognised for translating AI strategy into measurable business outcomes. Rather than adopting AI for its own sake, Dr. Esther Loo’s approach has focused on embedding intelligent automation into everyday logistics and supply chain operations, where it can reduce manual workload and free up teams for higher-value work.
The award also reflects a broader shift in how Malaysian enterprises approach digital transformation. Instead of treating AI, cybersecurity and cloud infrastructure as separate initiatives, organisations recognised at the summit have shown how these areas work together to build resilient, future-ready operations. Evolution Commerce’s recognition in this space reinforces its role as a homegrown logistics provider capable of competing on innovation, not just cost.
Looking ahead, Evolution Commerce plans to continue expanding its use of AI and automation across warehousing, fleet management and customer service, while ensuring that new technology is introduced in ways that support, rather than replace, its people.
The Digital Transformation Summit Malaysia has become a key gathering point for organisations navigating this shift, bringing together policymakers, technology vendors and enterprise leaders to compare notes on what is actually working. For Evolution Commerce, being recognised on that stage is both an acknowledgement of progress made and a reminder of the work still ahead in scaling responsible, people-centred digital transformation across its operations.
As a Malaysian-owned logistics solutions provider, Evolution Commerce continues to focus on using technology not merely as a tool for efficiency, but as a way to strengthen operations, elevate workforce capability and support the growth of the local e-commerce ecosystem.
