Company Leadership

Nazrul Anuar bin Nayan

Managing Director & CEO, IDNA Ideas Sdn. Bhd.

Specialist in Engineering Education, Computational Thinking, and IoT curriculum architecture.

Message from the Director

“At IDNA Ideas, we believe that learning technology should never be about memorizing syntax from blackboards. It should be an tactile, empowering experience where a student writes three lines of block logic and immediately sees a robot rotate, an IoT light activate, or a drone hover effortlessly in mid-air.”

“By transitioning our entire training stack to modern, wire-free iPads and modular microcontrollers, we eliminated the classic technical friction points that used to discourage beginners. Whether we are in a rural school in Sarawak or conducting an international camp in West Java, our goal remains unwavering: equipping today’s youth with the computational mindset they need to build tomorrow.”
