**Nvsion Sdn Bhd Secures Multi-Million Ringgit Seed Funding to Accelerate Growth in AI-Powered Inspection Solutions**
Nvsion Sdn Bhd, a Malaysia-based deeptech startup specializing in AI-powered Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) solutions, today announced the successful completion of a multi-million ringgit seed funding round. Although the exact amount remains undisclosed, the sole investor in this round is Cambrian Fund, a venture capital fund focused on Industry 4.0 themes. This marks Cambrian Fund’s inaugural investment.
Cambrian Fund, which focuses on the semiconductor sector, is managed by Southern Capital Group with anchor investors including Khazanah Nasional through its Dana Impak fund and the co-founders of ViTrox Corp Bhd.
The injection of funds will be utilized to accelerate Nvsion’s growth in several key areas: advancing product development and rollout, recruiting top-tier talent, and expanding its customer base.
Founded in February 2025 by Managing Director Jeffrey Chung Wai Loong and three co-founders, Nvsion brings together 46 years of deep technical experience. The startup focuses on developing cutting-edge AOI solutions that are vital for ensuring high precision, improving quality, and increasing efficiency in the outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) and electronics manufacturing services (EMS) sectors.
Beyond semiconductors, Nvsion sees significant potential to extend its platform into other advanced manufacturing sectors where precision and throughput are critical, such as advanced electronics, automotive, and medical devices.
At the heart of Nvsion’s innovation is its proprietary **Synthia Vision AI Platform**, which combines AI with rule-based algorithms to deliver high-speed industrial applications optimized for precision and efficiency.
“Securing this first round of funding is a defining moment for Nvsion,” said Jeffrey Chung. “We are honoured to welcome Cambrian Fund as our first investor. Their support not only validates our vision and technology but also provides us with access to world-class expertise and networks. With their backing, we are confident in our ability to drive greater innovation, expand our world-class customer base, and contribute to Malaysia’s emergence as a leader in advanced manufacturing.”
The investment perfectly aligns with Cambrian Fund’s strategy of backing technology companies in Southeast Asia that feature exceptional founders and clear paths to market leadership.
Kenneth Tan, CEO of Southern Capital Group and manager of Cambrian Fund, commented: “We launched Cambrian Fund to support visionary founders building the next generation of global technology leaders. We are proud and excited to partner with Jeffrey and his team. Nvsion’s advanced, software-first approach to machine vision is poised to make a significant impact in a critical and rapidly growing segment of the Industry 4.0 landscape. We believe in their potential to scale and become a market leader, and we look forward to supporting them on their transformative journey.”
