ULVAC Leadership Visit Strengthens Partnership with Knights Engineering in Malaysia
(JPMY) Strengthening ULVAC–Knights Engineering Partnership and Connections in Malaysia
We were honoured to welcome Mr. Setsuo Iwashita, CEO & President of ULVAC, Inc., and Mr. Alex Teh, Managing Director of ULVAC Singapore & Thailand, to Knights Engineering Sdn. Bhd. during their visit to Penang.
The visit was a valuable opportunity to strengthen our relationship with ULVAC and to showcase our local capabilities, including a visit to our MTL workshop, where the delegation had the opportunity to see our team and facilities supporting vacuum pump servicing in Malaysia.
As part of the visit, we also had the pleasure of accompanying the ULVAC team for meetings with InvestPenang and the Silicon Island team. We sincerely appreciate their time, hospitality and support in welcoming the delegation.
We also organised a private dinner bringing together ULVAC, Knights Engineering and the Malaysian Semiconductor Industry Association (MSIA), providing a wonderful opportunity to strengthen connections and enjoy meaningful conversations in a more informal setting.
As ULVAC’s Malaysia distributor, Knights Engineering is proud to support ULVAC’s presence and activities in Malaysia and to continue building strong relationships across the local industrial and semiconductor ecosystem.
A sincere thank you to Mr. Setsuo Iwashita, Mr. Alex Teh, InvestPenang, Silicon Island, MSIA and everyone involved for making the visit a meaningful and memorable one.
We look forward to continuing our close collaboration and creating more opportunities together.
Thank you for the visit and the continued trust in Knights Engineering. 🤝JPMY
