Our Story

Malaysia faces a critical challenge: declining interest in STEM fields among our students. STEM enrollment has fallen below 50%, a far cry from the national target, while critical industries like cybersecurity, robotics, and space technology grapple with severe talent shortages and thousands of high-paying jobs unfilled. This trend threatens our nation's ability to compete globally in innovation and technology, and deprives countless students, particularly those from B40 communities, of transformative career opportunities.  

This is where SpaceQuest Asia steps in. SpaceQuest Asia is on a mission to bridge the STEM education gap and empower young minds to thrive in a rapidly advancing world. Through our engaging educational programs, students delve into the intricacies of robotics, designing and programming their own bots to tackle exciting challenges, explore the cutting-edge world of cybersecurity with hands-on training in ethical hacking and digital security, and embark on journeys of space science, even designing experiments to be sent to the International Space Station (ISS). We are committed to making STEM exciting, accessible, and relevant for today’s youth, fostering creativity, and equipping the next generation with the tools to innovate.

  • To inspire and educate the next generation of scientists and engineers. We provide innovative, hands-on programs that ignite curiosity, foster STEM skills, and instill a lifelong passion for space exploration. Through strategic partnerships, expert guidance, and a commitment to inclusivity, we aim to prepare young minds to reach for the stars, pushing the boundaries of human knowledge and discovery.

  • Empowering Future Explorers through Inspired Learning.

    We envision a future where space science and technology serve as catalysts for boundless human potential, pushing the frontiers of knowledge and discovery.

    1. Innovation - We continually seek new and creative ways to engage and educate our students, pushing the boundaries of traditional education.

    2. Excellence - We uphold the highest standards in program quality, ensuring our students receive a world-class educational experience.

    3. Inclusivity - SpaceQuest is open to all, regardless of background or circumstances, and we actively promote diversity in STEM education.

    4. Global Impact - We believe in the transformative power of space science to benefit all of humanity, and we strive to instill this global perspective in our students.
