Our Story

About Lumi


We're a small team based in Kuala Lumpur with tech and media expertise. We developed the Lumi News app to create a better way for Malaysians to read and share the news.

  • We want to make news for everyone - for people of all ages in the farthest corners of every state to love the habit of staying informed.
  • We want to make the world a better, brighter place - by giving people access to information that makes a difference to their lives.
  • We want to see nations, not just our own, transformed through news, content, and views that will spark conversation and illuminate the minds of our future leaders.
  • We want to empower journalists and news publishers by growing an ever curious audience and sharing our tech and media expertise to keep them ahead of the changes of the media landscape.
  • Small startup, mighty team - we want to be recognised and remembered for making shifts and bringing long-term impact to mass Malaysians.



Where Lumi News is at now 🚀

  • We're the #1 app on Google Play Store's Top Charts for News & Magazines and in the top 10 spot on the App Store.
  • We're the most downloaded news app in Malaysia of 2024 to date, beating media giants in the industry that we have mad respect for.
  • We have over 400K all-time downloads despite being the youngest app in the market (we launched on Malaysia Day 2021).
  • There are over 80 publishers on the Lumi News app, some of them being Malaysia's biggest news brands such as NST, Berita Harian, Astro Awani, FMT News, SAYS, and international publishers like The Independent UK and Euronews.
