Led by its Patron, H.E. Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad, Malaysia’s fourth Prime Minister, together with a Board of Governors who are experienced captains of industries and established brand icons. The power of branding is a visual, auditory and sensory experience which is undoubtedly vital to the success of brands. Brands are catalysts that transcend achieving objectives, making profits or establishing one’s status so that it appeals to consumers. In reality, consumers’ buying preferences are determined by the way brands attract and engage them. It is crucial that organizations realize the significance of brands and branding. Likewise, consumers must also be educated and informed concerning the qualities of good brands and best-branding practices. This is where the APBF steps in to develop the ‘art of branding’. With aspirations to encourage the awareness of branding in Malaysia and across the world, the APBF takes an active role in identifying and nurturing outstanding Malaysian brands on an international platform. The Foundation continuously champions its mission to educate and communicate the ‘value of branding’ – with the concept that brand culture, combined with good practices, will give Malaysia the edge, even against the world’s most advanced nations. Starting off on a modest note with publication of branding articles in print media, the APBF has gradually evolved into an association which organizes branding seminars and forums to discuss the latest issues and developments in branding. After its establishment, the APBF has embarked upon a number of initiatives through The BrandLaureate to support its brand mission. Among the significant events initiated include The BrandLaureate Awards, first in 2006; for Multinationals (MNCs), Public Listed Companies (PLCs), Trans-National Corporations (TNCs), Government Linked Corporations (GLCs) and Large Corporations (LCs). With the success of the awards, the APBF then launched The BrandLaureate – SMEs Chapter Awards (now renamed SMEs BestBrands Awards) to honour the Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). A visionary organization, the APBF aims to continue to take branding into a new dimension via its heartfelt commitment and undying passion.
