Summit Focus
Two main themes
The two-day summit will deliver strategic recommendations and regional initiatives focused on two main themes:
(1) Ensuring competitiveness and resilience in a fragmented global landscape, through strengthening supply chains, securing energy systems, developing food systems, and harnessing emerging technologies.
(2) Finding ways to translate economic growth into prosperity for all sectors, through empowering MSMEs, supporting the creatives and services industries, strengthening industrial bases, and developing women and youth participation
ABIS 2026 is grounded in its commitment to strengthening ASEAN's position as a globally competitive, innovation-driven, and inclusive economic community. And as one of the world’s fastest-growing economic regions, these discussions will advance ASEAN’s shared prosperity goals through public-private collaboration.
