Asian Business Association

We are proud to announce that we are key supporters of the South Asian international students at the University of Westminster. By sharing real stories, practical guidance, and networks, the Asian Business Association and LCCI help students see what is possible, boosting their motivation, clarity, and self-belief. This connection not only supports career development but also equips students with perspective and resilience that will benefit them throughout their career journey.

2025 was the year we celebrated thirty years of ABA.

Thirty years later, ABA has gone from strength to strength. Read more in London Business Matters.
