YTL AI Labs has named Fadrizul Hasani, Grab’s former first engineer and ex-CTO of GXBank, as its new Chief Solutions Officer.
After 14 years in the Grab ecosystem, where he helped build the company into a regional platform, Fadrizul moves on from GXBank, which has appointed Nishant Sharma as its new CTO.

At YTL AI Labs, he will lead the development of sovereign AI platforms and production systems tailored for Malaysia, working alongside the lab’s leadership team, including Chee Mun Foong, Benny L., Lou Yeoh, and Hann Yeoh, on projects with national-scale impact.
The lab is closely linked to Malaysia’s digital banking sector through YTL’s stake in Ryt Bank, with CEO Chee Mun Foong having previously served as Ryt Bank’s Chief Product Officer.
Fadrizul had previously signaled his move toward a “new chapter focused on building things that are genuinely Malaysian.”
