Lark Base Advanced Permissions: A Beginner’s Guide

0

lark base advanced permissions

As your team grows, sharing the same Lark Base with everyone can quickly become a problem. The HR team should not see the sales pipeline. Sales reps should only edit their own deals, not their colleagues’. The finance team needs read-only access to project data — never edit rights.

This is exactly what Lark Base advanced permissions are designed to solve. Instead of an all-or-nothing approach, you can assign different roles to different people — and control exactly what each role can see, edit, or manage.

This guide breaks down how it works in plain language, so SMEs and startups can set up secure, well-organised bases without the headache.

What Are Advanced Permissions in Lark Base?

In a standard Base, anyone you share it with usually gets the same access — typically view or edit. That works for small, trusted teams.

But once your data starts containing sensitive information (salaries, customer details, financials, contracts), you need more control.

Advanced permissions let you:

  • Assign roles to different users or groups
  • Restrict access to specific records (rows) or fields (columns)
  • Choose who can manage permissions themselves
  • Set default access for new collaborators automatically

The result: everyone sees and edits exactly what they need — nothing more, nothing less.

Why SMEs and Startups Should Care

For a small team of five, you might get by with one shared Base. But the moment you cross 10–15 people, three problems appear fast:

  1. Sensitive data leaks. Someone accidentally sees salary information, client contracts, or strategic plans they should not.
  2. Accidental edits. A teammate changes a critical field they did not realise was important, breaking dashboards, formulas, or reports downstream.
  3. Cluttered views. Users get overwhelmed by data that has nothing to do with their job.

Advanced permissions solve all three. You build the Base once, then layer in the access rules so it scales cleanly with your team.

How Roles Work in Lark Base

A role is a defined set of permissions you assign to specific users or groups. Each role determines:

  • Which tables the user can access
  • Which records (rows) they can view or edit
  • Which fields (columns) they can view or edit
  • Whether they can manage the permissions of others

You can assign multiple users to the same role, or create different roles for different teams. Most SMEs end up with three to five roles that cover their entire organisation.

Tip: Think of roles as job descriptions, not job titles. “Sales Rep – Edit Own Deals” is more useful than just “Sales”. Naming roles by what they do makes ongoing management much easier.

Common Permission Levels Explained

While the exact role names in Lark Base may evolve over time, the underlying access levels follow a familiar pattern.

Here is what each level typically means:

can manage advanced permission lark base

Manage Permissions

The highest level of access. Users with manage permissions can configure advanced permissions, create or edit roles, and assign collaborators. This is usually reserved for the Base owner and one or two trusted admins.

Edit Access

Users can add, edit, or delete records — but only within the scope you allow. You can grant edit access to all records, or limit it to specific records (for example, only records the user created or only records assigned to their team).

view only access advanced permission Lark Base

View / Read-Only Access

Users can see records and fields but cannot make changes. Perfect for stakeholders who need visibility — such as managers reviewing team progress, or finance staff auditing project data — without the risk of accidental edits.

Field-Level Restrictions

You can hide or restrict editing on specific columns. For example, the “Salary” field might be visible only to HR managers, while everyone else sees the rest of the employee table without that column.

Record-Level Restrictions

You can limit which rows a user can see or edit. For example, sales reps might only see their own deals, while the sales manager sees the entire pipeline.

Tip: Start with the strictest permissions you can. It is much easier to grant additional access later than to claw it back after sensitive data has been seen.

Practical Use Cases for SMEs

Here are common scenarios where advanced permissions make a real difference:

Sales CRM

Sales reps see and edit only their own leads. The sales manager sees the entire team’s pipeline. The marketing team has read-only access to track conversion rates.

view only access Lark Base

HR & Employee Database

HR managers can edit everything, including salary fields. Department heads see only their team’s basic info (name, role, contact). Employees see only their own record.

Project Management

Project managers can create and edit all tasks. Team members can edit only tasks assigned to them. External clients get read-only access to a filtered view of project status.

Finance Tracker

Finance staff edit invoices and expenses. Department heads view their own department’s budget but cannot edit. The CEO has full read access across the entire base.

Customer Support

Support agents edit only the tickets they own. Team leads view all tickets across the team. Other departments get read-only access to filter by their own customers.

How to Plan Your Permission Setup

Before clicking anything in Lark Base, sketch out your permission plan on paper or in a Doc. Here is a simple framework:

  1. List every type of user who will access the Base (e.g. admin, manager, regular user, viewer, external partner)
  2. Identify sensitive fields that need protection (salary, client contact info, financial data)
  3. Identify scoping rules — should users see all records, or only their own?
  4. Map users to roles — group users with identical needs into the same role
  5. Set a default role for new collaborators so nobody accidentally gets full access

This 15-minute planning session saves hours of permission-fixing later.

Tip: Use Lark Base’s preview feature to test your permission setup. Administrators can view the Base “as” a different role to see exactly what that user will experience — a safe way to confirm everything is locked down properly before going live.

Pro Tips for Managing Permissions Long-Term

  • Audit regularly. Review your roles every quarter. People change positions, leave the company, or take on new responsibilities — permissions should follow.
  • Use groups, not individuals. Wherever possible, assign roles to user groups rather than individual people. When someone joins or leaves, you only update the group membership, not every Base.
  • Document your roles. Keep a simple Doc that explains what each role can do and why. This is invaluable when onboarding a new admin.
  • Test before announcing. Use the preview feature to confirm everything works as expected before rolling out a new permission setup to your team.
  • Communicate changes. When you tighten permissions, let affected users know in advance. A surprise loss of access damages trust quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What are advanced permissions in Lark Base?

Advanced permissions are a granular access control system in Lark Base that lets you define different roles for different users or groups, restricting what they can view, edit, or manage — down to the specific record or field level.

2. How do I set permissions in Lark Base?

Open your Base, go to the permissions or share settings, enable advanced permissions, and create roles that define exactly what each role can access. Then assign users or groups to those roles.

3. Can I restrict who sees certain records in Lark Base?

Yes. You can configure record-level permissions so that users only see specific rows — for example, only the records they created, only records assigned to their team, or records that match a certain filter condition.

4. Can I hide specific fields from certain users?

Yes. Field-level permissions let you hide or make read-only any column for specific roles. This is ideal for sensitive fields like salary, personal contact information, or internal notes.

5. Are advanced permissions available on all Lark plans?

Advanced permission features are available across the Starter, Pro, and Enterprise plans, though the depth of configuration may differ between plans. For the most advanced controls, the Pro and Enterprise plans offer the full set of capabilities.

6. Can I preview what a user will see before applying permissions?

Yes. Lark Base includes a preview feature that lets administrators view the Base as if they were a specific user or role — a safe way to verify your setup before rolling it out.

Build Secure, Scalable Bases with Confidence

Advanced permissions are what transform Lark Base from a simple shared spreadsheet into a proper team data platform.

With the right roles in place, you can give every team member exactly the access they need — keeping sensitive information protected and your data structure clean as your business grows.

For SMEs and startups, mastering this one feature pays off many times over.

It builds trust, protects critical information, and lets you confidently onboard new team members without worrying about who can see what.

How to Use AI-Generated Formulas in Lark Base

0

how to use ai-generated formulas in lark base

Formulas are powerful — but writing them is intimidating.

If you have ever stared at a spreadsheet wondering how to combine IF, CONCATENATE, and ROUNDDOWN into something that actually works, you are not alone.

The good news: with Lark Base AI-Generated Formula, you no longer need to know any of that.

Just describe what you want in plain English, and Lark Base writes the formula for you.

This guide walks you through how it works, with a real use case from an IT team.

What Is the Lark Base AI-Generated Formula?

It is a built-in AI feature inside Lark Base that turns plain-language prompts into working formulas.

Whether you need to add up numbers, flag overdue tasks, calculate duration between two dates, or join text fields together, you simply describe the goal — and the AI handles the rest.

Three big benefits for SMEs and startups:

  • No technical skill required — anyone on your team can build complex formulas
  • Saves hours — skip the trial-and-error and the Googling
  • Built-in explanation — the AI also explains how the formula works, so you actually learn along the way

Real Use Case: IT Request Tracker

Let’s look at a practical example.

An IT team uses a Lark Base table called the Issue and Request Tracker to manage all incoming support tickets. Each row records:

  • Submitted Date
  • Status (Completed, In Progress, Not Started)
  • Completion Date & Time
  • Customer details

When a request is marked as Completed, the team wants to automatically calculate how long the request took — in hours and minutes — between the Submitted Date and the Completion Date Time.

Manually writing that formula? Painful. Letting AI do it? Effortless.

Here is exactly how to set it up.

Step 1: Add a Formula Field

First, create the field that will hold your AI-generated formula.

  1. Open your Lark Base table
  2. Click the + icon to add a new field
  3. Enter a Field title (for example, Duration)
  4. Set the Field type to Formula
  5. Click Edit Formula

This opens the Formula editor, where the AI magic happens.

Add a Formula field and press Edit Formula

Tip: Name your field clearly before generating the formula. A descriptive name like “Duration” or “Days Overdue” helps the AI understand the context of what you are building.

Step 2: Use AI to Generate Your Formula

Inside the Formula editor, you will see two tabs: Edit Formula (manual) and AI-Generated Formula.

Click on AI-Generated Formula to switch to AI mode. Now follow these 5 sub-steps:

a. Click AI-Generated Formula

Make sure you are on the AI tab.

b. Enter your prompt

Type a clear, plain-language description of what you want the formula to do. For our IT tracker example, the prompt could be:

“If Status is ‘Completed’, I want to get the duration of the Completion Date Time and Submitted Date in Hour and Minute as ‘x Hour’ and ‘x Minutes’.”

c. Click Generate

The AI will produce a formula in the Generate Formula column on the right. For our example, it generates something like:

IF(Status=”Completed”,CONCATENATE(ROUNDDOWN(([Completion Date Time]-[Submitted Date])*24,0),”Hours”,ROUNDDOWN(MOD(([Completion Date Time]-[Submitted Date])*24*60,60),0),”Minutes”),””)

d. Click Accept to preview the results

Lark will instantly show you the Preview results — you can see exactly what the formula will output before committing. For example: “0Hours58Minutes” or “2Hours51Minutes”.

e. Click Confirm to save the formula

Once you are happy with the preview, click Confirm. Your formula is now live in the table.

 Use AI prompt to generate the formula for you

Tip: The clearer your prompt, the better the result. Mention the field names exactly as they appear in your table, specify the format you want the output in, and describe any conditions (like “only when Status is Completed”). Vague prompts give vague formulas.

Step 3: Read the Formula Explanation (Optional but Recommended)

This is where Lark Base’s AI really stands out.

Below the generated formula, you will see a Formula explanation section that breaks down what each function does and how the formula works as a whole.

Read the Formula Explanation

For example, the explanation might walk you through:

  • How the IF function checks whether the status equals “Completed”
  • How CONCATENATE joins the hour and minute values together
  • How ROUNDDOWN and MOD are used to extract clean hour and minute numbers
  • The exact order of operations

Tip: Read the explanation even if the formula works perfectly. Over time, you will start understanding formula logic naturally — and become less reliant on the AI for simple tasks.

Sample Output

Once the formula is saved, every row with a “Completed” status automatically displays the duration. For example:

sample output from ai formula in lark base

Rows that are still “In Progress” or “Not Started” stay blank — exactly as the formula intended.

More Ways to Use AI-Generated Formulas

The IT tracker is just one example. Here are other quick wins for SMEs and startups:

  • Sales tracker: Calculate days since last contact with a lead
  • Project management: Flag tasks that are overdue based on due date
  • HR & attendance: Calculate total working hours from clock-in and clock-out times
  • Inventory: Auto-calculate reorder points based on stock levels and sales velocity
  • Finance: Apply tiered commission rates based on sales figures

If you can describe it, the AI can usually build it.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. How do I create a formula in Lark Base using AI?

Add a Formula field, click Edit Formula, switch to the AI-Generated Formula tab, type a plain-language prompt describing what you need, click Generate, then Accept and Confirm to save the formula.

2. Do I need to know spreadsheet formulas to use Lark Base?

No. With AI-Generated Formula, you only need to describe your goal in plain English. The AI handles all the syntax for you.

3. Can the AI explain how the formula works?

Yes. Lark Base provides a built-in formula explanation that breaks down each function and how the formula produces its result — great for learning as you go.

4. What kinds of formulas can the AI generate?

Almost any standard formula — calculations, conditional logic, text manipulation, date and time operations, and more. Common examples include duration calculations, overdue flags, status-based outputs, and combined text fields.

5. Can I edit an AI-generated formula manually?

Yes. Once a formula is generated, you can switch back to the Edit Formula tab and fine-tune it manually if needed.

6. What if the AI gets the formula wrong?

Refine your prompt with clearer field names, output formats, and conditions, then regenerate. If it is still off, you can edit the formula manually using the standard formula editor.

Build Smarter Tables in Less Time

AI-Generated Formula is one of those features that makes you wonder how you ever worked without it.

For SMEs and startups, it removes the biggest barrier to using databases properly: the formula learning curve.

Anyone on your team can now build sophisticated tables that calculate, flag, summarise, and automate — without needing a spreadsheet expert in the room.

Combine it with Lark Base’s other features like workflow automation, forms, and dashboards, and you have a no-code data platform that scales with your business.

How to Run a Lucky Draw with Lark Base Workflow

0

how to run a lucky draw with lark base workflow

Running a lucky draw for your event, campaign, or employee engagement activity used to mean spreadsheets, manual entry collection, and someone awkwardly pulling names out of a hat.

With Lark Base Workflow Lottery, the entire process — from collecting entries to randomly picking winners — runs on autopilot.

This guide walks you through how to set it up, step by step.

What Is the Lark Base Workflow Lottery?

It is a simple automation built inside Lark Base that lets you:

  • Collect participant entries through a registration form
  • Set a deadline to automatically stop accepting responses
  • Randomly pick winners the moment the deadline hits — no manual work required

It is perfect for marketing campaigns, customer giveaways, employee appreciation events, festive promotions, or any moment where you need a fair, transparent random draw.

Use Case Example

Imagine your marketing team is organising a customer event. Anyone who wants to join must fill in a registration form. The form closes on 30 August 2025 at 5:30 PM.

The moment it closes, Lark Base automatically picks 3 lucky winners from all submitted entries — instantly, fairly, and without anyone touching the data.

That is exactly the kind of workflow this setup handles.

Step 1: Create the Registration Form

Start by building the form that participants will use to enter the draw.

a. Choose the Upgraded Form

Inside your Lark Base, add a new view and select Upgraded Form (not Classic Form).

The Upgraded Form gives you more customisation options like themes, settings, and submission controls.

choose upgraded Lark form

b. Set an end time for submissions

Go to Form > Settings and look for the Set expiration option. Toggle it on, then set your End time (for example, 30 August 2025, 17:30:00).

After this time, the form will automatically stop accepting new responses — no manual closing required.

Set an end time for submissions

Tip: Always use the form’s built-in expiration rather than relying on a manual close. It guarantees a clean cut-off time, which is essential for a fair lucky draw.

Step 2: Set Up the Form Fields

Add the questions you need participants to answer.

a. Create the necessary fields

For a typical lucky draw, you will want at minimum:

  • Submitted Date (auto-captured timestamp)
  • Customer Name
  • Email Address
  • Any extra fields relevant to your campaign (phone number, company, preferred prize, etc.)

Create the necessary fields

Keep the form short. The fewer fields, the higher your completion rate.

b. Watch responses flow in automatically

Once you publish the form and share the link, every submission will appear as a new row in your Lark Base table. You can monitor entries in real time without lifting a finger.

 2. After customers fill up the form, the data will be tabulated to the table.

Tip: Add a Winner column (single-select or checkbox field) to your table now. The workflow will use this column later to mark the lucky winners automatically.

Step 3: Build the Workflow to Pick Winners Automatically

This is where the magic happens. Lark Base’s workflow automation handles the random selection for you.

a. Open Workflow

Inside your Base, click Workflow in the bottom-left corner and create a new workflow.

create a new Lark workflow

b. Set the trigger

Choose a time-based trigger and set it to fire at your form’s expiration time (in our example, 30 August 2025, 17:30). This ensures the lottery runs the exact moment entries close.

Select the fields that will be used by the system for lucky draw

c. Add the random selection action

Configure the workflow to randomly select a set number of records from your entries table — for example, 3 random winners. Then add an action to update the Winner field for those selected records (for example, mark them as “Winner”).

choose lottery draw

lark workflow lottery draw setting

After the system draws the results, setup an Update record in the respective table with the lottery results

d. (Optional) Send notifications

Add a final step to automatically notify the winners — either via Lark Messenger, email, or by posting an announcement in a group chat. This makes the entire experience seamless from entry to announcement.

Tip: Test your workflow before going live. Submit a few dummy entries, set the trigger to fire in 5 minutes, and confirm everything runs as expected. A small test run avoids embarrassing mishaps on the actual event day.

Step 4: Announce the Winners

Once the workflow runs, your winners are marked in the table. From here, you can:

  • Filter the table by the Winner field to see all winners at a glance
  • Export the winner list for record-keeping
  • Share the results with your team or audience through a Lark Doc, dashboard, or chat announcement

sample output using automated Lark workflow lottery

The whole process — collection, deadline, random pick, notification — happens automatically, even if you are away from your desk.

Why This Beats a Manual Lucky Draw

Manual lucky draw Lark Base Workflow Lottery
Collect entries via spreadsheet or form Auto-collect into a structured table
Manually close entries at deadline Automatic expiration
Use a separate random picker tool Built-in random selection in the workflow
Manually contact winners Automated winner notifications
Risk of human error or bias Transparent, fair, and fully automated

For SMEs and startups running regular giveaways or engagement campaigns, the time savings add up fast.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Can Lark Base really pick random winners automatically?

Yes. Using Lark Base’s built-in workflow automation, you can configure a trigger to randomly select a set number of entries from a table at a specific time, with no manual input required.

2. How many winners can I select in one workflow?

You can set the workflow to select any number of random winners, from one to as many as you need, depending on your campaign rules.

3. Can I use the Lark Base lottery for events other than marketing campaigns?

Absolutely. It works for employee appreciation draws, festive giveaways, customer loyalty programmes, internal team-building activities, and any scenario that needs a fair random selection.

4. Do I need coding skills to set this up?

No. The entire workflow is built using Lark Base’s no-code automation interface — just point, click, and configure.

5. Can I notify the winners automatically?

Yes. You can add a notification action to your workflow to send messages via Lark Messenger, email, or a group chat announcement the moment winners are selected.

Run Your Next Lucky Draw the Smart Way

A lucky draw should be exciting for your audience, not stressful for your team.

With Lark Base’s Workflow Lottery, you spend less time on logistics and more time on what actually matters — engaging your customers, celebrating your employees, and growing your brand.

Whether you are running a one-off giveaway or planning a recurring engagement programme, this is the kind of automation that makes Lark Base a genuine productivity multiplier for SMEs and startups.

Ramai pemilik perniagaan hanya mula mencari penyelesaian apabila menyedari ada masalah—biasanya apabila pelawat keluar terlalu cepat dan mula mencari di engin carian how to fix slow website Malaysia.

Hakikatnya, kelajuan laman web memainkan peranan yang jauh lebih besar daripada yang disangka, kerana ia mempengaruhi pengalaman pengguna dan kepercayaan pelanggan.

Kenapa Laman Web Saya Perlahan? Soalan Lazim Perniagaan di Malaysia

Ini adalah soalan yang sering ditanya oleh pemilik perniagaan: kenapa laman web saya perlahan (Malaysia), walaupun nampak normal?

Dalam banyak kes, masalahnya tidak begitu jelas.

Prestasi perlahan biasanya berpunca daripada:

  • imej bersaiz besar yang tidak dioptimumkan
  • terlalu banyak plugin atau skrip
  • reka bentuk laman yang berat

Faktor-faktor ini akan terkumpul dari masa ke masa dan menjejaskan kelancaran laman web.

Bagaimana Laman Web Perlahan Menghalau Pelanggan

  1. Pelawat Tinggalkan Laman Sebelum Ia Siap Dimuatkan

Apabila laman web terlalu perlahan, kebanyakan pengguna tidak akan menunggu. Mereka akan terus keluar.

Kelajuan laman web berkait rapat dengan tempoh masa pengguna berada di laman anda.

2. Prestasi Lemah Menjejaskan Persepsi

Laman web yang perlahan boleh memberi gambaran bahawa perniagaan tidak diurus dengan baik.

Walaupun produk atau perkhidmatan anda berkualiti, masalah prestasi boleh menjejaskan kredibiliti.

3. Penglibatan Rendah dan Peluang Terlepas

Apabila laman lambat bertindak balas, pengguna kurang cenderung untuk terus meneroka.

Ini mengurangkan interaksi dan peluang untuk conversion.

Ini sering menjadi punca tersembunyi mengapa laman web masih terasa perlahan.

Dapatan Kajian: Kelajuan Mempengaruhi Tingkah Laku Pengguna

Kelajuan laman web memberi kesan langsung kepada cara pengguna berinteraksi dengan laman anda.

Menurut Google, walaupun sedikit kelewatan dalam masa muat boleh mengurangkan kadar conversion kerana pengguna cenderung meninggalkan laman sebelum ia siap dimuatkan.

Exabytes Strengthens Role as Technology Enablement Partner

At the MyInnovationX Corporate Innovation Global Summit, Exabytes formalised a strategic partnership with MyInnovationX (MYX) through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), reinforcing its position as a leading Technology Enablement Partner driving digital innovation across Malaysia and the wider ASEAN region.

As organisations navigate an increasingly complex digital landscape, the ability to execute innovation effectively has become a defining factor for growth. This collaboration reflects a shared commitment to bridging the gap between ideas and execution, enabling businesses to move from concept to scalable solutions with confidence.

Bridging Innovation and Execution

Innovation is no longer just about generating ideas. The real challenge lies in execution. Many organisations struggle to translate concepts into tangible outcomes due to a lack of infrastructure, coordination, and technical expertise.

Through this partnership, Exabytes and MYX aim to solve this challenge by enabling innovation execution through a SaaS-based digital innovation marketplace. The platform supports the full lifecycle of innovation, including opportunity listing, solution discovery, intelligent matching, pilot and proof-of-concept (PoC) execution, and scale-up tracking.

By combining MYX’s structured innovation framework with Exabytes’ technology capabilities, organisations in Malaysia and across ASEAN gain a clear pathway to transform ideas into real-world solutions.

MYX Driving Open Innovation Across ASEAN

MYX plays a pivotal role as an ASEAN-driven open innovation platform that connects startups, corporates, and public sector agencies. It creates an ecosystem where collaboration leads to scalable solutions for real-world challenges.

Its responsibilities include managing opportunity and challenge listings, enabling solution discovery, and facilitating matchmaking through scoring and shortlisting processes. MYX also supports pilot and PoC workflows with structured templates, defined milestones, approvals, and timelines.

In addition, MYX ensures commercial readiness by providing proposal frameworks, pricing options, and procurement handover support. Its reporting capabilities allow stakeholders to track pipeline progress, conversion rates, outcomes, and post-pilot follow-ups.

This end-to-end continuity ensures that innovation initiatives are not isolated efforts, but part of a structured and sustainable ecosystem.

Exabytes Strengthens Role as Technology Enablement Partner

Exabytes as a Technology Enablement Partner

As part of this collaboration, Exabytes serves as the Technology Enablement Partner, providing the digital backbone that supports innovation from ideation to scale.

Exabytes will contribute up to RM500,000 worth of in-kind services, demonstrating its commitment to supporting businesses, startups, and corporates within the MYX ecosystem. These services include cloud infrastructure, plug-in services, productivity tools, and front-end digital solutions.

From a technical perspective, Exabytes enables critical functions such as security, backup, monitoring, DevOps, automation, and system integration. These capabilities ensure that solutions are secure, scalable, and ready for production environments.

Beyond infrastructure, Exabytes also provides digital workplace and collaboration tools, empowering teams to operate efficiently in modern, distributed environments. This positions Exabytes not just as a provider, but as a strategic partner in digital transformation.

Supporting Innovation from Pilot to Scale

A key strength of this partnership lies in its ability to support organisations across every stage of the innovation journey.

Exabytes enables participants to test ideas in sandbox environments, develop proof-of-concepts, and build minimum viable products (MVPs). As these solutions mature, Exabytes supports production deployment and large-scale rollout with the necessary infrastructure and advisory services.

This end-to-end support reduces friction in the innovation process, allowing organisations to focus on delivering value rather than managing technical complexities. It also ensures that innovation initiatives can progress smoothly from experimentation to commercialisation.

Exabytes Strengthens Role as Technology Enablement Partner

Driving Commercial Impact and Growth

Beyond enabling technology, this collaboration is designed to create real business impact. By connecting solution providers with actual business challenges, the MYX platform creates structured opportunities for collaboration, revenue generation, and market expansion.

For Exabytes, this strengthens its position as a trusted Technology Enablement Partner, supporting organisations in deploying and scaling digital solutions effectively. For businesses across Malaysia and ASEAN, it provides a clear pathway to transform innovation into measurable outcomes.

This alignment between innovation and commercialisation is critical in today’s competitive environment, where speed, efficiency, and scalability determine success.

A Future-Ready Digital Ecosystem

The partnership between Exabytes and MYX reflects a forward-looking approach to building a future-ready digital ecosystem. By combining platform-driven innovation with strong technology enablement, this collaboration creates a scalable model for long-term growth.

As organisations continue to evolve, the need for a reliable Technology Enablement Partner becomes increasingly important. Exabytes is well-positioned to fulfil this role, helping businesses across Malaysia and ASEAN innovate, deploy, and scale with confidence.

Exabytes: Advancing Open Innovation in Malaysia Through Execution

As Malaysia accelerates its journey towards a digital-first economy, the conversation around innovation is evolving. Increasingly, organisations are recognising that success is no longer defined by ideas alone, but by the ability to execute and scale them effectively. This shift is at the heart of advancing open innovation in Malaysia, where collaboration, ecosystem partnerships, and practical implementation are becoming critical drivers of growth.

In the lead-up to the MyInnovationX Programme (MYX), held in conjunction with the Corporate Innovation Global Summit, Chan Kee Siak, Founder and CEO of Exabytes, contributed to a whitepaper and video interview under Project Minerva (Malaysia Open Innovation). These pre-event insights bring forward a grounded perspective on how Malaysia’s innovation ecosystem is maturing, and what it takes to move from experimentation to real business outcomes.

Advancing Open Innovation in Malaysia: From Awareness to Action

Over the past three to five years, Malaysia has made significant progress in embracing open innovation. Corporates are increasingly open to collaborating with startups, technology providers, and ecosystem partners. There is a growing understanding that innovation does not happen in isolation, and that external collaboration can accelerate growth.

However, while awareness has improved, the journey towards advancing open innovation in Malaysia is still in transition. Many organisations remain at the pilot stage, experimenting with ideas but struggling to scale them into impactful, enterprise-wide solutions.

This gap highlights a fundamental challenge. Innovation today is not limited by creativity or ambition, but by execution capability. The ability to operationalise ideas, align stakeholders, and integrate solutions into business processes is what ultimately determines success.

Identifying High-Impact Opportunities

Malaysia’s digital landscape presents a range of opportunities for organisations looking to embrace open innovation. High-growth areas include cloud adoption, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, digital infrastructure, and SME digitalisation. These sectors are not only commercially viable but also aligned with national priorities for economic transformation.

At the same time, emerging technologies continue to attract attention, often generating strong interest without corresponding levels of deployment. While exploration is necessary, organisations must balance innovation with practicality. The focus should remain on initiatives that deliver measurable outcomes, whether through operational efficiency, improved customer experience, or revenue growth.

To truly succeed in advancing open innovation in Malaysia, organisations must prioritise opportunities that can be scaled and sustained over time.

Closing the Execution Gap

One of the most consistent challenges highlighted in the interview is the execution gap within open innovation initiatives. Despite strong intent, many efforts fail to deliver meaningful business impact.

This gap is often driven by several factors. These include unclear ownership, fragmented governance, limited internal capabilities, and misalignment between innovation teams and business units. In addition, traditional procurement and risk management processes may not be designed to support agile experimentation and rapid deployment.

As a result, many initiatives remain stuck at proof-of-concept stage. While pilots demonstrate potential, they often lack the structure and support required for full-scale implementation.

According to Chan, organisations must shift their mindset. Innovation should not be treated as a standalone initiative, but as an integrated part of business strategy, supported by clear accountability and measurable performance indicators.

From Pilot to Scale: What Organisations Must Do

Successfully advancing open innovation in Malaysia requires a structured approach to scaling innovation initiatives.

Leadership alignment is a critical starting point. Without strong executive sponsorship, innovation efforts often lack the direction and resources needed to succeed. Leaders must champion innovation as a strategic priority, not just an experimental function.

Equally important is the establishment of clear evaluation frameworks. Organisations need defined criteria to assess pilot success and determine when initiatives should move to scale. Without these benchmarks, projects risk remaining in indefinite testing phases.

Capability building also plays a key role. Organisations must develop the internal expertise required to manage partnerships, integrate external solutions, and adapt workflows to support innovation. This includes both technical and operational competencies.

Finally, organisations must be willing to evolve their internal structures. Scaling innovation often requires changes in governance, procurement processes, and decision-making frameworks to enable faster and more effective execution.

Strengthening Ecosystem-Led Innovation

A key pillar in advancing open innovation in Malaysia is the strength of its ecosystem. Open innovation thrives when corporates, solution providers, startups, and ecosystem platforms work together towards shared outcomes.

In a well-functioning ecosystem, each stakeholder has a clear role. Corporates define business challenges and provide scale. Technology partners deliver solutions and technical expertise. Ecosystem platforms facilitate collaboration, enabling faster matching and execution of opportunities.

Malaysia’s innovation ecosystem is steadily growing, but there remains significant opportunity to enhance collaboration frameworks. Strengthening these connections will be essential to unlocking the full potential of open innovation.

As a digital solutions provider, Exabytes plays an active role in this ecosystem. By enabling access to scalable infrastructure, cloud technologies, and digital platforms, Exabytes supports organisations in bridging the gap between innovation concepts and real-world deployment.

Looking Ahead: Execution Will Define the Leaders

The future of advancing open innovation in Malaysia will be defined by organisations that can execute effectively. As the ecosystem matures, the focus will increasingly shift from ideation to implementation, and from isolated pilots to scalable impact.

The insights shared by Chan Kee Siak through Project Minerva highlight a clear direction. Innovation must be intentional, structured, and outcome-driven. Organisations that succeed will be those that can align strategy, capability, and execution to deliver measurable value.

As Malaysia continues to strengthen its position in the regional digital economy, advancing open innovation will not just be an advantage. It will be a necessity for sustainable growth.
