GrandCape (M) Sdn Bhd, a new joint venture between Cape EMS Berhad and New Grand Tech (HK) Limited, has officially begun operations, with four Flexible Flat Cable (FFC) machines already in use at its facility in Senai, Johor. This venture aims to strengthen advanced interconnect engineering for sectors such as electric vehicle (EV) mobility, artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure, and energy systems.
As part of Cape EMS’s initiative called CEB 2.0, the company seeks to transition from a traditional assembly provider to a sophisticated system integrator focusing on digital infrastructure and advanced energy systems. The formation of GrandCape is a strategic move to address the growing demand for high-performance connectivity in modern digital environments.
This collaboration will enable the production of specialized FFCs and high-density interconnect solutions, essential for GPU clusters and supporting large-scale AI applications. The joint venture is also set to deliver reliable interconnect systems for battery modules and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), facilitating the global shift towards renewable energy.
According to Christina Tee Kim Chin, Managing Director and Group CEO of Cape EMS, this initiative marks a pivotal change in their business model, focusing on high-value solutions that integrate AI infrastructure with energy systems.
