ASEAN Business Awards 2023
The ASEAN Business Awards (ABA) has been an important initiative of the ASEAN-BAC since its inception in 2007. Over the past 13 years, ABA has provided members of the ASEAN business community with a platform to reaffirm their position among their industry peers. ABA serves to enhance regional integration and in doing so, demonstrates ASEAN-BAC’s commitment to innovation and sustainability.
ABA 2023 will honor outstanding companies and individuals who have demonstrated leadership in driving growth through innovative solutions. In addition, this year’s awards will also recognize businesses that prioritize an agenda for building sustainability, showcasing their dedication to developing a more inclusive and environmentally responsible ASEAN community.
“The very essence of ABA is to highlight the importance of collaboration and community empowerment in the ASEAN business landscape. We firmly believe that strong partnerships and social responsibility play an important role in driving prosperity across the ASEAN region,” said Bernardino Vega, Alternate Chair of ASEAN-BAC.
“By recognizing and celebrating an extraordinary business community, we aim to inspire others to contribute to ASEAN’s sustainable economic growth,” he said.
ABIS and ABA 2023 are designed to be innovative events that offer unparalleled networking opportunities and knowledge sharing while celebrating the achievements that drive the ASEAN region forward.
Companies such as PT Astra International Tbk., Indika Group, Sinar Mas, Bakrie Group, East Ventures, Indofood, Mayora Group and MRT Jakarta have all expressed their support for ABIS and ABA 2023.
