The campus is spread out across slightly more than 100,000 sq ft – about the size of 1.5 football fields – over four floors. It will enable the company to enhance its research and technological capabilities as well as grow its collaborations with academic institutions.
The official opening of the EVYD Campus and celebration of the company's second anniversary was attended by Dato Seri Setia Dr Haji Mohd Amin Liew bin Abdullah, Minister at the Prime Minister's Office, Minister of Finance and Economy II, Chairman of the Brunei Investment Agency (BIA) and Chairman of EVYD Technology; Dato Seri Setia Dr Haji Md. Isham bin Haji Jaafar, Minister of Health; Haji Khairuddin bin Haji Abdul Hamid, Deputy Minister of Finance and Economy; Pengiran Hajah Zety Sufina binti Pengiran Dato Paduka Haji Sani, Deputy Minister of Finance and Economy; Haji Sofian bin Mohammad Jani, Acting Managing Director (MD) of BIA; and Permanent Secretaries and Deputy Permanent Secretaries of the Brunei Ministry of Health and Ministry of Finance and Economy.
Dato Seri Setia Dr Haji Mohd Amin Liew bin Abdullah, Minister in the Prime Minister's Office, Minister of Finance and Economy II, Chairman of BIA and Chairman of EVYD Technology, said: "EVYD Technology is a company that has a strong and clear mission ingrained in its DNA right from the very start. As EVYD continues to develop new technologies, refine our current technologies and aggregate more data across our increasing roster of clients and partners, we get closer to achieving a future where value-based outcome is made possible. EVYD has a clear role to play in optimizing the world's healthcare systems and mitigating unsustainable cost increases. This is our company's purpose and our north star."
"As EVYD accelerates our global expansion, we will continue to develop the competencies and capabilities in Brunei. The establishment of EVYD Campus in Jerudong is yet another concrete testament to our commitment to develop the local health and technology ecosystem, and to the wider community," he added.
Mr Chua Ming Jie, CEO of EVYD Technology, said: "EVYD Technology is pleased to open our new campus in Jerudong, and to celebrate our second anniversary in Brunei. This state-of-the-art facility is the physical manifestation of our growth in Brunei so far, as well as of our commitment to further expand to serve the global markets. It will enable us to grow our research and technological capabilities, as well as further collaborations with leading research institutions in the region. We also hope to make this a place for the people by hosting regular community outreach and education programmes, especially in the area of digital health."
Haji Sofian bin Mohammad Jani, Acting MD of BIA, said: "BIA has always believed in a purpose, mission and values alignment with all of our portfolio companies and strategic partnerships. As a strategic, long-term investor, BIA believes that the healthcare sector offers great potential for value creation given its acknowledged systemic issues. We acknowledge it will take time, collaboration and innovation to realize this value. We envision that the pathway to create this value is through an underlying platform that connects healthcare stakeholders to facilitate a more efficient exchange and analysis of information and data to drive better healthcare outcomes for all."
"At BIA, we are very optimistic about the growth potential of EVYD in the region and beyond. I am happy to note that EVYD has expanded to other countries, including Singapore and now the US. And that it continues to look at even more countries to grow its business. BIA is proud to be an investor, and we look forward to growing our partnership with EVYD from strength to strength," he added.
To commemorate the occasion and the success of BruHealth, a national health app co-developed by the Ministry of Health and EVYD Technology, the company was gifted a painting painted by Her Royal Highness Yang Teramat Mulia Pengiran Anak Muneerah Madhul Bolkiah binti Duli Yang Teramat Mulia Paduka Seri Pengiran Muda Mahkota Pengiran Muda Haji Al-Muhtadee Billah – elder daughter of the Crown Prince of Brunei.
"With this painting, I wish for EVYD in Brunei beautiful beginnings, purity, good luck and strength," Her Royal Highness said.
