This is an award organised by the ASEAN Business Advisory Council since 2007 to honour businesses with outstanding achievements and contributions to the development of the region. The award ceremony took place within the framework of the 2023 ASEAN Business and Investment Summit in Jakarta, Indonesia, with the participation of Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh and Indonesian President Joko Widodo.
The award represents the recognition of international organisations for HDBank's digital innovation, which is of great significance to the region and ASEAN businesses. The digital innovation contributes to promoting trade and cooperation in the communities of Southeast Asian countries and around the world.
