Rooted in the progressive vision of the UAE’s Founding Father, H.H. Sheikh Zayed, the ABLF champions values of responsible leadership, sustainable economic growth, and inclusive collaboration across Asian markets. Its meticulously curated programmes, including high-level forums, masterclasses, publications, podcasts and digital dialogues, the Forum highlights leadership excellence, fosters cross-border partnerships, and amplifies Asia’s voice on global platforms.
Through its flagship ABLF Awards, the forum celebrates transformative leaders whose accomplishments have significantly impacted society, economy, and governance.
