The Indonesian Muslim Women Entrepreneurs Association commemorated its 10th anniversary from May 4 to 6 in Jakarta, Indonesia, showcasing a vision for future cooperation between women, technology and businesses across borders.

The event gathered over 700 attendees, including IPEMI President Ingrid Kansil and senior Indonesian government officials. The gathering served as a platform to recognize the organization’s achievements over the past decade and to outline a roadmap for the next 10 years.

Notably, Lee Gwang-yeon, chairman of Pasifik Korea, proposed a forward-looking digital strategy to strengthen the IPEMI community and support its business development.

Lee introduced two digital platforms under development — IPEMI Ummah, a nonprofit community platform fostering trust and knowledge-sharing, and IPEMI Tijarah, a business-focused e-commerce platform designed to expand members’ commercial reach.

“These platforms represent the next phase of connection and sustainability, not only for Korea and Indonesia but also for the global Muslim business community,” said Lee.

Both platforms, spearheaded by Lee and his organization PK CNHI, are set to undergo testing in Korea this year and will be officially launched for IPEMI members in 2026.

As part of this broader collaborative effort, Lee also introduced Moon Jun-ho, CEO of Sune Korea and a key technological partner.

Moon, a veteran in global finance and M&A, presented two initiatives aligned with this vision — PK HalalPay, an ethical digital finance project co-developed with blockchain firm Medito, and IU.ai, an AI-powered startup platform designed to simplify e-commerce business creation.

Additionally, Minister of Religious Affairs of Indonesia, Nasaruddin Umar, expressed his hopes, stating, "I sincerely hope IPEMI to lead the empowerment of five million Muslim women entrepreneurs and contribute to the management of religious facilities in 38 provinces."
