The EMA Conference will be held alongside the main exhibition from Nov 22 to 23, featuring various topics such as enabling mass scale EV two-wheelers in ASEAN, unlocking electrification in commercial truck transport, the safety and environmental impact of charging infrastructure, among others.

Closing-off all of the EMA conference is the final day-long conference held by MARii. Titled ‘The Malaysia EV 2023 Ecosystem Skills Conference: Enhancing Talent Through TVET’, this final conference will be held on the last day of the EMA on Nov 24, with free admission for all participants.
