Founders Mixer - Meetup #1

Startups & SMEs Sabah – 1st Founders Mixer

We are excited to kick off the very first Startups & SMEs Sabah meetup with our 1st Founders Mixer, marking the launch of our first state level chapter. This mixer is a casual get together for founders, entrepreneurs builders and aspiring startup folks in Sabah to connect, share stories and get to know one another. No panels, no pitching pressure and no formal agenda. Just real conversations, good food, genuine connections and a chance to build a stronger local entrepreneur community together.

Startups & SMEs Malaysia has been running monthly meetups since 2012, bringing founders together over coffee and conversations in Kuala Lumpur. Now, we are bringing that same community driven spirit to Sabah.

What to expect at this mixer:

• An informal networking session with fellow founders and entrepreneurs
• Opportunities to meet people building startups and SMEs in Sabah
• Sharing of ideas, experiences and challenges
• A relaxed and welcoming environment for first timers

Whether you are running a startup, growing an SME, working on a side project or simply curious about the entrepreneur scene in Sabah, this is the perfect place to start.

📅 Date: 3rd February 2026
🕒 Time: 6:00-10:00 pm
📍 Venue: Menara MAA, Kota Kinabalu

Come hang out, make new connections and be part of the beginning of Startups & SMEs Sabah. This is just the first of many meetups to come.
