Message From

The Founder

For 26 years, MIE Groups has played a practical role in advancing international cooperation by creating platforms that support trade, investment, and industry development. Our purpose is simple: bring together government and the private sector, connect global suppliers with regional demand, and enable partnerships that deliver measurable outcomes. Through our B2B and B2G platforms, we help stakeholders identify opportunities, build long-term relationships, and open pathways for market access, especially for SMEs growing beyond their home markets. We’re grateful for the trust placed in us, and remain committed to credible, impactful, future-ready platforms.
