A pivotal step in bridging academia with industry, HELP University’s IT Student Council (ITSC) recently facilitated a highly successful Industrial Study Visit to PayNet on July 11, 2025. This exclusive opportunity immersed 41 students and a lecturer from the Faculty of Computing and Digital Technology (FCDT) into Malaysia’s dynamic digital payments ecosystem.

The visit began with a guided walkthrough of PayNet’s headquarters at Mid Valley City. Participants explored PayNet’s state-of-the-art facilities, including their Immersive Wall and office environment, setting the stage for a day of learning and interaction.

The session was officially opened with a warm welcome and insightful opening remarks by Dr. Endry Lim, Chief of Staff at PayNet. This was followed by a series of informative sessions, including comprehensive presentations that explored PayNet’s past, present, and future in shaping Malaysia’s payment landscape. Students gained invaluable insights from a dedicated data sharing session by their Data Lake team, and a highlight was the insightful panel discussion, ‘Transitioning from Campus to Career’, which offered practical guidance on navigating the financial technology industry.
