• December 09, 2022

My name is Uzma Khan. I am the founder and CEO of Cathect Sdn. Bhd. We are a full-service digital agency based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Though we are located in Malaysia, the digital world has expanded our scope, and we serve clients situated in any part of the world. We offer a wide range of exceptional and comprehensive digital solutions to our clients across the globe. whether it is website design and development, customized Web and mobile applications, e-commerce solutions, software testing, digital marketing, or any other kind of digital transformation. 

We started this company in 2016, with a vision to be known globally as a top-quality provider of IT services and solutions. Since then, our team has helped organizations from multiple domains, including IoT, healthcare, education, and food & beverage, by building impactful web and mobile applications for businesses of all sizes and across all sectors.

We take up each project as a top priority and imperative assignment, and each client is provided with detailed attention from commencement to completion, using state-of-the-art technology to guarantee quality deliverables. Our clients stay with us when they see the competitiveness of their products and services grow quickly in the markets they have entered. The proof really is in the pudding, and our record speaks for itself.

Be it a multinational or an SME, quality is our key, and we strive to create and add value to the businesses. We map specific processes using data and customized software. As a result, existing and new processes in companies are processed more efficiently, precisely, and seamlessly, which is what makes us achieve the prestigious MSC status from the Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC). 

The MSC Malaysia Status is recognition by the government of Malaysia towards Cathect for its ICT and ICT-facilitated businesses that develop and use multimedia technologies to produce and enhance products and services. It is also a mark of world-class service and achievement and a passport and gateway to a host of privileges granted by the government of Malaysia to business entities. We are proud that this certification reaffirms our commitment to business excellence and allows us to play a role in enabling the continued growth of Industry 4.0 in Malaysia.

Another achievement in such a short period of time is our recognition as one of the top 100 SMEs in Malaysia in the AmBank BizRace entrepreneurship challenge competition, in which almost 1000 SMEs participated. 

At Cathect, we believe that 1 + 1 = 11, and that is why we have the best team that works not like a team but like a family. Everyone watches each other's back, and that is how we can face any challenge fearlessly and confidently. 

Cathect holds to its commitments towards its work. We deliver what we commit and deliver on time. We respect our clients and value their time and money. We believe that “a stitch in time saves nine,” and this mantra distinguishes us from the others. The solutions we offer to our clients help them improve productivity, efficiency, and flexibility. That’s what made Cathect recognized on different platforms, and I am honored to see Cathect receive the “Most Admired IT Company of the Year” award from Women Icon Powered by Times Women and the World Women's Council (WWC).

This achievement is not just a celebration of our team's hard work; it, in fact, celebrates the excellence of women in several diverse fields for their dignity and hard work. 

Today, Cathect serves as a platform for talented individuals, both males and females, to deliver top-quality work that helps organize and streamline business activities as well as create wealth for our clients. Our core values—integrity, ethics, and passion—guide every interaction and define our service approach with our clients. We are dedicated to supplying the highest value to all our clients to help them continually alter and challenge the industry world.

I’d like to wrap up by saying once again how immensely honored and humbled I am to receive this award. It will certainly drive me and my team towards growing a business that provides value and solutions to businesses worldwide. We are committed to changing the future through our efforts to create a world of smart solutions.
