The Mubarak Ali Foundation works at the intersection of cultural diplomacy, education, and the creative economy, strengthening connections between Bangladesh and its global diaspora. Established with a commitment to nurturing talent and fostering international dialogue, MAF creates pathways for Bangladeshi voices to resonate on the world stage.

Led by Amreen Bashir Ali and Tanveer Ali, the foundation champions initiatives spanning arts, education, entrepreneurship, and culture, from establishing the IBA Mubarak Ali Case Centre in partnership with Harvard Business School, to supporting artists through Frieze London's Emerging Art Prize. Through flagship platforms such as Bangla House at SXSW London and Art Dhaka, MAF continues to position Bangladeshi creativity and talent at the forefront of global cultural conversation.
