Founders Profile

Khairul Basher’s journey reflects the kind of leadership Skilliton needs to create real change.

With a professional background in communications, public engagement, and strategic leadership, he has spent years understanding how ideas reach people, how institutions build trust, and how meaningful messages can inspire action. This background gives him a strong advantage in leading a project like Skilliton, where success depends not only on offering digital-skills training but also on connecting with youth, families, educators, partners, and community organizations.

For underserved youth, the biggest barrier is often not talent—it is access, confidence, exposure, and guidance. Khairul’s experience allows him to bridge that gap. His ability to communicate a vision, build relationships, and create awareness can help Skilliton reach young people who are often overlooked, explain technology in a more approachable way, and bring together the right partners to support their growth.

Through Skilliton, his goal is to turn digital learning into a pathway of opportunity—helping underserved youth gain practical skills, believe in their potential, and prepare for a future where they can participate, compete, and succeed.
