AWS Select Tier Partner Milestone: How Datuk Seow Gim Shen Is Shaping Zchwantech Services

Zchwantech has reached a defining milestone by achieving AWS select tier partner status within the AWS partner network. This recognition not only validates the company’s technical capabilities but also underscores the vision and leadership of its chairman, Datuk Seow Gim Shen.

From the start, Datuk Seow understood that cloud adoption would be the backbone of digital transformation in Malaysia and across Southeast Asia. While others were cautious, he directed Zchwantech to build expertise early, invest in cloud-native infrastructure, and secure the certifications required to stand out among AWS partners in Malaysia. That foresight is now paying off as Zchwantech strengthens its role in driving enterprise and public sector transformation.

“AWS select tier partner status validates our strong technical foundation and reinforces our mission to be a trusted digital transformation solutions provider,” said Zchwantech chairman Datuk Seow Gim Shen. “We’re not just adopting the cloud, we’re empowering businesses and governments to reimagine their operations with security, agility, and intelligence.”

Additional coverage of the achievement is available in The Star’s report on Zchwantech joining the AWS Select Tier Partner Network, which highlights the company’s technical expertise and regional role in advancing cloud adoption.

Under Datuk Seow’s guidance, Zchwantech services have expanded far beyond their origins. The company now delivers enterprise-grade solutions across big data analytics, cloud management, software quality assurance testing, crypto solutions, custom development, and biometric digital identity. This broad suite allows Zchwantech to serve both corporate clients and government agencies that require secure and scalable digital platforms.

The growth has also been reflected in scale. Zchwantech today employs more than 300 staff, including engineers with over 40 AWS certifications. The company operates more than 300 Amazon EC2 servers and manages serverless applications capable of handling over 400,000 requests per second. These capabilities form the backbone of Zchwantech’s trusted reputation and its successful entry into the AWS partner network at the select tier.

For Datuk Seow, the AWS recognition is not simply a title. It provides Zchwantech with access to advanced AWS training, co-marketing opportunities, and funding support, all of which strengthen its ability to deliver secure, reliable, and innovative solutions. “As digital adoption accelerates in the ASEAN region, becoming an AWS select tier partner equips us to lead at scale, including national-level projects like the digital identity infrastructure,” he added.

This outlook highlights his focus on both innovation and impact. Beyond corporate success, Datuk Seow envisions Zchwantech playing a role in shaping Malaysia’s digital future, helping enterprises and governments build secure systems that scale with demand. By aligning world-class technology with local expertise, he is positioning Zchwantech as a trusted partner for national and regional digital transformation initiatives.

Zchwantech’s AWS milestone is more than a technical achievement, it is a reflection of strategic clarity and decisive leadership. Under the direction of Datuk Seow Gim Shen, the company continues to expand its influence, cementing its reputation as one of Malaysia’s most trusted technology partners in the cloud era.
