ASEAN-Connect Initiative (东盟互联互通倡议)

Uniting ASEAN's Industrial and Commercial Ecosystem through AI & Strategic Media Integration

The first truly integrated ASEAN industrial and commercial ecosystem

The ASEAN region—home to over 650 million people and a fast-emerging economic bloc—is challenged by fragmented industrial sectors, outdated communication tools, and limited cross-border collaboration. As traditional business directories fade, businesses are left without effective platforms to connect, collaborate, or grow regionally.

The ASEAN-Connect Initiative (东盟互联互通倡议), spearheaded by Communication 21 Media Group, is designed to solve this problem.

We are building the first truly integrated ASEAN industrial and commercial ecosystem, powered by AI-enabled matchmaking, digital catalogs, printed directories, and strategic business outreach. Our platform enhances visibility, supports intra-ASEAN trade, and prepares businesses for the next wave of global integration.
