Under the newly inked Team Agreement, ProtoTy will collaborate with MYBIG to jointly supply innovative AI solutions throughout Malaysia and Indonesia, leveraging MYBIG’s extensive regional sales channels. The two firms aim to combine ProtoTy’s advanced AI technology with MYBIG’s strong local networks to enhance competitiveness and deliver smart-solution services to government-linked and enterprise-level projects.

“This partnership with MYBIG marks a key milestone in demonstrating ProtoTy’s technological competitiveness across Southeast Asia,” said Park Seung-hyun, CEO of ProtoTy. “We plan to accelerate our localization efforts and provide more innovative AI-driven services to customers in the region.”

MYBIG CEO Kong Chia-hing echoed the sentiment, noting that MYBIG is “deeply confident in ProtoTy’s AI expertise” and intends to “lead the digital transformation of the local market through a strong and sustainable collaboration.”

Founded by IT professionals with more than 15 years of overseas experience, ProtoTy operates development hubs in South Korea, Vietnam, and Uzbekistan, employing a global workforce of over 2,000 engineers. The company offers AI-based outsourcing and developer subscription services, allowing clients to scale technical resources flexibly. Its flagship platforms include ProtoTy AI, an intelligent talent-matching service, and ProtoTy Academy, an online learning and content-creation hub that connects skilled professionals worldwide.

ProtoTy also collaborates with Uzinfocom, Uzbekistan’s national IT enterprise, on a suite of next-generation digital healthcare solutions — including a unified electronic medical record (EMR) system, MyID biometric authentication, and palm-vein and facial-recognition access technologies — slated for upcoming deployment in both South Korea and Malaysia.

The partnership with MYBIG cements ProtoTy’s growing presence in Southeast Asia and signals a broader regional ambition: to become a core enabler of government-led AI innovation and smart infrastructure across emerging markets.

AI기반 IT 솔루션 전문기업 프로토타이(대표 박승현)는 11월 5일 말레이시아 쿠알라룸푸르에서 현지 대표 컨설팅 기업 MYBIG(대표 콩 치아힝)과 전략적 파트너십 및 AI 기반 IT 솔루션 공급 계약을 공식 체결했다고 5일 밝혔다. 체결식 현장에는 양사 담당자 및 말레이시아 주요 IT 회사 및 관련 부처 담당자가 참석해 양사와의 신뢰와 협력 강화 의지를 재확인했다.

계약에 따라 프로토타이는 MYBIG의 말레이시아와 인도네시아 지역 영업 채널을 기반으로 다양한 혁신적 AI 솔루션을 공동 공급하고, 정부 관련 프로젝트 등 다양한 사업 전개에 협력하기로 했다. 이를 통해 양사는 기술과 현지 네트워크의 시너지를 극대화하여 IT 시장 내 경쟁력을 강화할 방침이다.

박승현 프로토타이 대표는 “MYBIG과의 전략적 파트너십을 계기로 동남아시아 시장에서 프로토타이의 AI 기반 IT기술 경쟁력을 입증하고, 보다 많은 현지 고객에게 혁신적 서비스를 제공할 계획”이라며 “지속적인 해외 진출 및 현지화에 더욱 박차를 가하겠다”고 밝혔다. MYBIG 측도 “프로토타이의 AI 전문성에 대한 기대가 크며, 견고한 협력을 통해 현지 시장의 디지털 전환을 선도하겠다”고 전했다.

프로토타이는 15년 이상 해외에서 직접 인력을 채용하고 IT 회사를 운영한 전문가들이 설립한 기업으로, 현재 한국 본사를 비롯 베트남과 우즈벡에 지사를 두고 2,000명 이상의 글로벌 IT 인력을 활용한 IT 아웃소싱 개발과 필요한 기간만 사용가능한 IT인력 구독제 서비스를 운영 중이다. 자사 서비스로는 AI 기반 매칭 서비스 PROTOTIE AI 와, 다양한 인재들과 함께 온라인 강의를 제작하는 프로토타이 아카데미 서비스를 제공하고 있다. 또한 프로토타이는 우즈베키스탄 국영기업인 UZINFOCOM과 협력하여 통합 의료 EMR 시스템을 비롯 MyID 생체인식 시스템, 얼굴 인증, 손바닥 정맥 인식 시스템 등 첨단 기술 기반 솔루션을 곧 국내 및 말레이시아에 출시할 예정이다

MIMOS, operating under Malaysia’s Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MOSTI), is the national-applied research and development centre responsible for advancing digital infrastructure and technological innovation across the country. The agency functions as a key node in Malaysia’s ambition to become a regional digital hub.

During the visit, ProtoTy presented a range of its AI-based smart services and advanced digital solutions. Alongside the MYBIG team, the company engaged in wide-ranging discussions with MIMOS officials about potential joint-initiatives. Among the highlighted capabilities were its experience in biometric access systems developed in collaboration with Uzbekistan’s state IT company Uzinfocom and its integrated digital hospital project — both cited as demonstration models of government-digital transformation alliances in emerging markets.

The impetus, according to ProtoTy, is to leverage these proof-points and elevate the cooperation with MIMOS to a new level. As a symbol of the burgeoning relationship, MIMOS awarded ProtoTy a “Best Compliment” plaque — an official acknowledgment of the company’s contribution to local digital innovation. The recognition is expected to lay the foundation for broadening the partnership further.

In a parallel development, MYBIG presented ProtoTy with a gratitude plaque for its collaboration in the recent Malaysia Ministry of Education event held in South Korea, underscoring the bilateral dimension of the Korea-Malaysia cooperation in education and digital transformation.

Speaking on the occasion, CEO Park remarked: “Our cooperation with MIMOS represents a meaningful first step as we lead global convergence business at the heart of Southeast Asia’s digital innovation cluster. To expedite commercialization, we will continue regular remote meetings and technical exchanges with MIMOS, MYBIG and Uzbekistan’s Uzinfocom.” Looking forward, ProtoTy plans to work with its partners in Malaysia and Uzbekistan to identify and pilot various innovation models applied to government projects and international digital-transformation efforts.

The visit and the ensuing agreements reflect a broader trend: Korean AI-tech firms increasingly view Southeast Asia not only as a market but as a partner in co-creating next-generation digital solutions tied to public-sector transformation. The collaboration between ProtoTy and MIMOS may thus signal the emergence of a new regional axis of AI-based innovation bridging East Asia and Southeast Asia.
