From Sunway College to Sunway University, and now to the top of the podium! 🏆

A huge congratulations to Koay Yun Sheng (Bachelor of Mechatronic Engineering (Robotics) with Honours) and Amberly Teoh Ke Wei (BSc (Hons) in Computer Science) from the Faculty of Engineering and Technology, Sunway University, on being crowned Champions at the Axiata Foundation ULDP CEO Challenge.

What makes this achievement even more meaningful is that both Yun Sheng and Amberly began their academic journey at Sunway College as AUSMAT and Sunway University Foundation in Arts students before progressing to Sunway University. Their success is a wonderful reflection of how talent continues to grow across the Sunway Education ecosystem.

The CEO Challenge was the final stage of the two-week ULDP programme, where participants had just two days to transform their ideas into business solutions and pitch them to a panel. Competing against some of the brightest young talents, Yun Sheng and Amberly not only emerged as champions but were also recognised among the Top 25 Performers of ULDP Cohort 16.

With more than 900 applicants, only 95 participants were selected for the programme, and just three students represented Sunway University.

We're incredibly proud to see our students demonstrating leadership, innovation and resilience on such a prestigious platform. Congratulations once again, Yun Sheng and Amberly—we can't wait to see where your journey takes you next! 👏
