1MDB Real Estate chief executive officer Datuk Azmar Talib said the teams comprised collaborations of top and global architects.

"Our aim is to attract collaboration of local and global talents to reap cutting edge innovation and creativity on a global level for the Signature Tower," he said.

Meanwhile, PAM president Saifuddin Ahmad said they will ensure the subsequent stages of the competition continue to be conducted in a rigorous and transparent manner, mirroring 1MDB's own stringent procedures."

Among the criteria for the selection are the organisations' capabilities, experiences of firm or firms in collaboration and similar related past and current projects, especially on signature and landmark towers.

From the 12 teams, a nine-member international jury will pick five winning teams to proceed to the third and the final stage.
