KLANG, MALAYSIA – The United Economic Summit 2025 concluded with a strong call for cross-border institutional cooperation, led by H.E. Zeenat Kureshi. Attending as an invited Speaker and International Representative, Kureshi’s participation served as a bridge between the Indian subcontinent, the GCC, and the ASEAN region, reinforcing India’s strategic economic diplomacy.
Strategic Policy and Trade Corridors
Addressing a high-profile assembly of global diplomats and policymakers, H.E. Zeenat Kureshi delivered a compelling keynote on “Strengthening India–GCC–ASEAN Trade Corridors through Strategic Collaboration, Education, and Business Diplomacy.” Her address focused on a structured approach to international trade, moving beyond one-time transactions toward sustainable, long-term collaboration models. Key pillars of her speech included:
• The implementation of structured MoUs to facilitate trade.
• The critical role of capacity building and skill development in global growth.
• Advocating for women’s leadership within international policy frameworks.
Institutional Frameworks: Two Major MoUs Signed
Solidifying her reputation as an active policy enabler, H.E. Zeenat Kureshi oversaw the signing of two significant Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) during the summit.
These agreements are designed to create a practical framework for international business:
1. Sudev International & AACC Kureshi: This partnership aims at trade facilitation, business delegations, and the exchange of critical market intelligence to ease market entry for global investors.
2. Oxford Education Institutions & AACC Kureshi: A collaboration focused on international academic exchange and skill development, ensuring that the global workforce is prepared for the evolving economic landscape.
Reinforcing India’s Economic Soft Power
Beyond her role as a speaker, H.E. Zeenat Kureshi’s presence positioned her as a central figure in Economic Diplomacy. By connecting government bodies, trade organizations, and educational institutions, she has strengthened the “India-GCC-ASEAN” trilateral relationship.
While she maintains a significant influence in the creative and media sectors as a Film Producer, her focus at the summit remained strictly on high-level trade facilitation and policy-making. Her leadership as a Trade Commissioner continues to demonstrate that real international progress is achieved through action-oriented diplomacy and institutional partnerships.
