“A proposed Nasdaq uplisting is one part of our multi-faceted strategy to broaden our capital base and build our company into an international player in the HVAC and ESG (environmental, social and governance) space,” EvoAir Group’s group managing director and co-founder Kevin Chan pointed out.

Shopping malls, developers, housings, factories, are already using our product,” the Malaysian Daily News portal quoted Chan as saying during the Network 1 signing ceremony.

EvoAir Group’s founder and CEO Dr Low Wai Koon reiterated the group’s mission to contribute to the earth amid the alarming global warming and climate change issues confronting the world’s 7.97 billion populace through green inventions.
