Founder

Having been raised overseas, Madiha Fuad (Maddy) returned to Malaysia at the age of 20 to reconnect with her origins. She earned an MBA with a High Achievement Scholarship, followed by a PhD in Business with 100% Scholarship.

Maddy started her career as a business journalist for 3 years at The Edge Newspaper. This experience inspired her to start her own business.

Realising that many struggle silently due to the inability to reach out for help, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, PlusVibes was developed to improve accessibility and allow people to seek assistance anonymously. 

Maddy's journey to where she is today is full of thorns and thistles, yet she manages to stay positive along the way. Her mission is to empower others to get through their rough chapters.

The PlusVibes app was born through input from psychiatrists, doctors, mental health counselors and those facing mental health challenges. PlusVibes partners with corporate companies and universities in identifying and mitigating mental health issues in their organisation.
