As we step further into 2025, preparations are well underway for the highly anticipated MIA International Accountants Conference 2025 (MIA Conference).
This year marks a significant milestone as the MIA Conference celebrates its 40th anniversary. Over the decades, the Conference has evolved and expanded, earning recognition as one of the largest regional gatherings of accountancy professionals. Held annually at the iconic Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre, the Conference is recognised as a flagship event for the profession amidst Malaysia’s dynamic business landscape.
In 2024, the hybrid-format MIA Conference successfully set a new benchmark, drawing a record-breaking 3,800 delegates. Focused on ensuring the profession’s future relevance, the Conference embraced the theme Navigating New Frontiers, Embracing Sustainability, which resonated deeply with stakeholders.
Moving forward, the Conference will continue to be a pillar of MIA’s extensive professional development initiatives. In 2024 alone, MIA successfully organised nearly 1,000 professional development programmes, reinforcing its commitment to advancing the profession. We are proud to announce that MIA was recently honoured with the prestigious HRD Corp Human Resources Minister Award 2024, a testament to our standing as a premier training provider in Malaysia and our dedication to fostering excellence in human capital and learning development.
As we celebrate four decades of impact, the MIA Conference 2025 aims to set new standards of excellence. Our steadfast commitment to strategic collaboration is reflected in this year’s Conference theme of Collaborative Leadership for a Sustainable Future. This theme underscores our core priorities—future relevance, transformation, innovation, and sustainability—while reinforcing the power of collective leadership in navigating the evolving business landscape.
Building on our legacy of collaboration, the hybrid MIA Conference 2025 aims to convene over 3,000 delegates and will feature 80 distinguished speakers from the highest levels of Government, regulation, standards, and business. The Conference will explore critical topics such as sustainability, leadership, standards, and technology, all framed within the principles of ethics and good governance that are at the heart of the profession. Attendees can expect a transformative experience designed to empower accountancy professionals as collaborative leaders, equipped to address the seismic shifts shaping the business world.
Aligning with UNSDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals, the MIA Conference 2025 will leverage the profession’s global, regional and domestic networks to foster innovation and chart a strategic roadmap for the future. Our emphasis on collaborative leadership also aligns with Malaysia’s vision of strengthening regional alliances to position ASEAN as a global economic powerhouse, in step with Malaysia’s current ASEAN chairmanship.
We warmly invite you to join us for the MIA International Accountants Conference 2025 as we commemorate 40 years of excellence. Together, we can shape a sustainable future for the profession and contribute to the nation’s continued progress.
