At the 55th International Paris Air Show (16–22 June 2025, Le Bourget), Menteri Besar Selangor (Pemerbadanan) or MBI Selangor and the National Aerospace Industry Corporation (NAICO) are jointly highlighting their strategic commitment to talent development through the Selangor Aero Park @KLIA Aeropolis and broader initiatives across Selangor.
As part of their showcase at the Malaysian Pavilion (Hall 3, Stand D94), MBI Selangor and NAICO will unveil a coordinated suite of talent development programmes focused on building a resilient and future-ready aerospace workforce. These initiatives are structured around three key pillars:
• Development of a Centralised Talent Hub: MBI Selangor and NAICO are exploring the establishment of an Aerospace Talent Centre (ATC) within Selangor Aero Park or other mutually agreed locations. The ATC will serve as a centralised platform for training, reskilling, upskilling, and aerospace-related research, supporting the development of both new and existing talent in the sector.
• Research and Technological Advancement: The partnership will facilitate government–industry–academia collaboration in areas such as advanced manufacturing, composite structures, digitalisation, and emerging aerospace technologies, aimed at driving innovation and ensuring Malaysia remains at the forefront of aerospace capabilities.
• Competency Development via MyAERO Centre: MBI Selangor will collaborate closely with the MyAERO Centre, leveraging it as a key strategic resource hub for competency enhancement. Both parties will participate in aerospace programmes, projects, and national initiatives coordinated through the MyAERO platform.
“Our approach places talent at the core of Selangor Aero Park’s vision – ensuring we shape, attract and retain the next generation of aerospace professionals,” said Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari, Menteri Besar of Selangor.
By collaborating on training capacity and structured pathways, MBI Selangor and NAICO are building a sustainable pipeline of aerospace talent to support both local and global industry needs.
This focus on talent is aligned with Malaysia’s national aerospace aspirations and the Selangor Aerospace Action Plan.
