Overview

Who We Are

The B57+ is a landmark initiative established by the Islamic Chamber of Commerce and Development (ICCD), in collaboration with the Standing Committee for Economic and Commercial Cooperation of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (COMCEC), and the Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges of Türkiye, to strengthen collaboration between the private sector and policymakers across the Islamic world, reshaping the future of global economic cooperation. 

It serves as a high-level platform for Business-to-Government (B2G) dialogue, connecting leading CEOs, investors, and institutions with policymakers across the 57 OIC member states and beyond, to accelerate trade, promote investment, and foster sustainable economic development across the 57 OIC member countries and beyond.

Through dialogue, knowledge-sharing, and global partnerships, B57+ transforms economic cooperation into tangible business opportunities.

Why Choose Us

Why B57+

With a collective population exceeding 2 billion, the OIC region holds immense economic promise, yet intra-regional trade operates far below its true capacity. B57+ was established to bridge this gap by:

Creating a Unified Private-Sector Voice

Enabling Direct B2G Dialogue

Accelerating Trade, Investment, and Partnerships

Transforming Economic Cooperation into Real Business Outcomes

The + Advantage

B57+ extends beyond the 57 OIC member countries. The “+” strategically represents a global and inclusive approach that extends beyond the 57 OIC member states, to represent:

Non-OIC Countries with Significant Muslim Populations

Global Islamic Finance Hubs (UK, Singapore and Luxembourg)

Multinational Corporations and Global Institutions

Engine for Ethical Globalization

This inclusive framework positions B57+ as a bridge between the Islamic economy and the global market, unlocking access to strategic partnerships, investment flows, and cross-border prosperity.
