Strengthening economic ties across the Asia Pacific region.
Our first regional chapter fosters cross-border collaboration, unlocking new trade corridors and deepening market access across one of the world’s most dynamic economic zones.
From Indonesia, the world’s largest Muslim-majority economy, the Asia-Pacific Regional Chapter launches as a pivotal expansion of the B57+ Business Leaders Network, designed to deepen regional engagement and catalyze cross-border economic growth.
Functioning as a strategic bridge, the chapter connects business leaders, investors, and policymakers across APAC markets, fostering tighter integration within the OIC economic ecosystem while extending B57+’s reach into dynamic global trade corridors.
Its launch is a cornerstone in our mission to build a worldwide network of Islamic economic leadership, starting from the region’s most influential economy, for impact across continents.
Connecting APAC markets (Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, etc.) to the broader OIC network.
Launch of the Asia Pacific Regional Chapter
In a significant moment at Indonesia Economic Summit 2026 (IES 2026) , H.E.

Mr. Arsjad Rasjid, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Indonesian Business Council (IBC), recognizing Indonesia’s pivotal impact through this transformative initiative.
This declaration represents a commitment: to position Asia-Pacific as a dynamic hub where Islamic economies and global partners converge, building bridges across value chains, cultures, and continents.
The chapter has been successfully initiated as part of B57+ regional expansion strategy, with operational frameworks and guidelines.
