Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education is an important aspect of human capital development for the nation. To cultivate interest and understanding of STEM, Proton DX announced its availability as a community engagement platform for STEM exploration.
As the Proton Digital Xperience centre in Quill City Mall approaches its first anniversary since its establishment, the centre is the first in Malaysia that blends interactive technology, leisure, and lifestyle elements.

Proton DX is run by P1’s infotainment supplier ACO Tech and is developed in collaboration with Proton and China Construction Bank (CCB). Since its opening in June 2023, Proton DX has organized and conducted several initiatives to cultivate a passion for STEM among young minds.
The centre hosts a monthly Student Robotic Car Workshop aimed at secondary school students. At the workshop, students learn the basics of assembling and programming their mini-autonomous vehicles using an Arduino platform.
Over 50 Malaysian youths from across the Klang Valley have participated in the workshop. Students who complete this workshop receive a certificate and a goodie bag. ACO Tech is targeting to engage at least 200 Malaysian youths through this workshop and other upcoming STEM activities by the end of 2024.
To maximise the facilities on offer, Proton DX actively welcomes collaborations from local companies in search of a platform to conduct events and workshops promoting STEM awareness and education among young Malaysians, as well as other activities designed to bring local communities together.
Proton DX also welcomes visitors of all ages to enjoy a resourceful visit to the centre. Visitors get to learn about ACO Tech’s technologies and products, and experience engaging activities such as the Virtual Cockpit, a virtual drive in a purpose-built enclosed theatre-like dome to experience smart mobility.
