ASEAN is a $4 trillion economy of 700 million people and the world's fifth-largest economic bloc. With record FDI inflows of $246 billion in 2025, accounting for 15% of global investment, the region has emerged as a major destination for international business, manufacturing, digital industries and supply chains. Powered by deepening regional integration and the complementary strengths of its 11 Member States, the region continues to drive cross-border value chains, investment dynamics and production networks.
This high-level Forum will bring together Ministers, business leaders, investors and international experts to examine the drivers of ASEAN's investment success and resilience, and to identify new opportunities for regional and cross-regional partnerships, including with the Gulf, to unlock sustainable growth and connectivity.
