Microplastics have transitioned from an emerging environmental concern to a defining challenge of our time, systematically permeating global water networks and infiltrating human food chains.

Co-organized by Leave a Nest Malaysia and IMU University, MAD 2026 bridges the gap between scientific discovery, target-driven public policies, and commercial deep-tech market alternatives. Our goal is to shift the community from awareness to systematic intervention — safeguarding our waters and protecting public health.
