The increasing demand is not only confined to mobile applications related segments but to other industries as well such as architecture and the vast medical field. 3D graphics provide users with more realistic depth and provide users with a better understanding of what is being shown.

"We are ecstatic with the synergy and potential this acquisition will provide to say the least as this is a game changer for VCI Global.

That can only mean massive markets for us to capitalize on," said Dato' Victor Hoo, Group Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of VCI Global.
