More than just a retail outlet, the store will double as a learning center starting September 2025 with a robust lineup of workshops. These will range from beginner drone flying classes to advanced cinematography sessions, all led by certified experts.
This store isn’t just about showcasing products, it’s about building a creative community, said Eason Guo, Deputy Chief Executive of DJI. With our two level layout, we’re able to offer immersive, hands on experiences that go beyond what online shopping can provide. We’re especially thrilled to launch our educational series to support Malaysia’s next wave of content creators.
