The National ICT Month 2010 (NIM2010) was launched on April 12th 2010 by the Minister of Science, Technology & Innovation (MOSTI) YB Datuk Seri Dr Maximus Johnity Ongkili at Palace of The Golden Horses.
As the industry association, PIKOM works to strengthen the value of our membership with us by focussing on bringing new business opportunities to you. The National ICT Month (NIM) is organised with this objective in mind.
Last year, NIM2009 co-organised by MOSTI & PIKOM was a resounding success.
PIKOM is supporting efforts not only to increase growth of domestic ICT products and services, but also to promote businesses, both SMEs and large corporations, to better reach out to customers, domestically as well as globally. The push for E-Commerce will be an integral part of NIM2010.
The theme of NIM2010 is “E-Commerce for Global Reach”. Events during NIM2010 include:

2. Business Success Forum – August 5th & 6th, targeted at all industry captains, to share what e-Commerce represents to industry and why every company should e-enable their business models for global reach. Day 2 of this Forum will be for technology leadership of user companies to learn how to support e-Commerce strategies.
