Malaysia’s New Incentive Framework (NIF) adopts an outcome-based assessment approach.
Manufacturing projects will be evaluated through the NIA Scorecard (National Investment Aspiration Scorecard), which assesses their contributions to the national economy, industrial upgrading and long-term development.
One of the key areas, Developing New and Existing Industrial Clusters, focuses on fostering closer linkages between businesses, research institutions, intellectual property and targeted industries. This is intended to facilitate the translation of innovation outcomes into manufacturing activities and market applications.
Businesses can demonstrate their contribution to industrial cluster development in four areas:
- Developing, applying for or registering product patents;
- Entering NIA target sectors or the core industries identified under NIMP 2030;
- Commercialising local research and development outcomes and translating them into manufacturing activities; and
- Promoting collaboration among businesses, research institutions and industry partners.
From innovation and patents to targeted industries and the commercialisation of research and development outcomes, these efforts can help individual projects become part of a more complete industrial ecosystem and contribute to the development of more competitive manufacturing clusters.
马来西亚新投资框架下的产业集群发展
马来西亚 New Incentive Framework（NIF，新投资框架）采用以成果为导向的评估方式。
制造业项目将通过 NIA Scorecard（国家投资愿景评分卡）进行评估，以衡量投资项目对国家经济、产业升级与长期发展的贡献。
其中，发展新兴与现有工业集群（Developing New and Existing Industrial Cluster）重点推动企业、研发机构、知识产权与目标产业之间建立更紧密的联系，促进创新成果转化为制造活动及市场应用。
企业可从以下四个方向展现其在产业集群发展方面的贡献：
- 开发、申请或注册产品专利；
- 进入 NIA 目标领域或 NIMP 2030 所确定的核心产业；
- 将本地研发成果商业化，并转化为制造活动；以及
- 促进企业、研发机构与产业伙伴之间的协同合作。
从创新与专利，到目标产业与研发成果商业化，这些努力有助于推动单一项目融入更完整的产业生态，并促进更具竞争力的制造业集群发展。
