Maxis can now provide an enhanced end-to-end Cloud Managed Services through a single touch point for customers to enjoy upfront cost savings and flexibility to scale their cloud consumption needs through a ‘pay-as-you-use’ model.

We are pleased and excited to join the Maxis family. “Since 2010, Peering One has grown its presence significantly in the Malaysian cloud market, with an extensive customer base across multiple industries. This is Maxis’ second acqui-hire in the Cloud space, following the successful integration of Infrastructure Consulting & Managed Services (ICMS), a Microsoft Gold Business Partner with strong competencies across Azure Cloud Solutions, Modern Workplace and Security, back in April 2020. Peering One has more than 10 years’ experience in providing Managed Cloud and ICT services to Enterprise customers across Malaysia. It is a reinforcement of our commitment to support the Government’s MyDIGITAL initiative to transform Malaysia into a regional leader in the digital economy, and in bringing the best of people and technologies to enable businesses and the nation to Always Be Ahead,” said Paul McManus, Maxis’ Chief Enterprise Business Officer. “The integration of Peering One into our team at Maxis is a big milestone in our journey to be the market leading cloud solutions provider for our customers, and further deepens our domain expertise.
The acqui-hire of Peering One is primarily for their pool of strong cloud professional specialists, customer base and market position, which will further boost Maxis’ capacity and capabilities to offer best-in-class Private and Hybrid Cloud solutions.
The acqui-hire reinforces Maxis’ capabilities as a one stop, end-to-end cloud solutions provider, with complete cloud offerings that address the full spectrum of business needs.
Sometimes founders are surprised by the results, sometimes they just learn a little more, but the most valuable part of this process is that investors LOVE this objective standard of ‘real proof’.In its latest move to strengthen its position as Malaysia’s Leading Converged Solutions Company, Maxis has announced the acqui-hire of Peering One Sdn Bhd, a Malaysian-based cloud solutions company specialising in hybrid and private cloud managed services. So during Discovery, we pursue an objective standard of ‘real proof’ and either enable founders to carry out unbiased, formal, research themselves or do it on their behalf. Qualcomm Incorporated (NASDAQ: QCOM) today announced that its subsidiary, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire NUVIA for approximately 1.4 billion before working capital and other adjustments. Unfortunately, we also run the risk of bias - asking biased questions or people, for example. This is problematic because the term ‘real proof’ is subjective.įor example, when we have spent many years in an industry, navigating a problem and speaking to people who agree it’s a problem, we often consider that to be ‘real proof’ that there’s a market for our solution. The Collins Dictionary defines the meaning as follows: “If you make an assumption that something is true or will happen, you accept that it is true or will happen, often without any real proof.” the lab with a product tha t has been prepared by the startup and is currently in the prototype.
