July 02, 2010
SHAH ALAM, July 2 — Lotus Development Corporation founder Mitchell Kapor agreed today to become an advisor to the Selangor state government.
State economic advisor Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim made the announcement after Kapor delivered a lecture on Innovation and Entrepreneurship: Lesson learned from Silicon Valley, at the state secretariat.
The creator of the Lotus 1-2-3 application — the spreadsheet programme considered IBM’s first ever ‘killer application’ in the 1980s — and who is an advisor to the Wikimedia Foundation, is in Malaysia on Anwar’s invitation.
The invitation was to provide opportunities for local information technology startups & technopreneurs to learn from the world leader.
It is part of the state government’s programme to spur innovation and improve the economy.
Kapor is expected to work with the state government and Anwar to look into policies and programmes to create a conducive environment for startups.
