ABOUT IPPA

IPPA’s vision is to promote Pakistan, and particularly its showbiz industry worldwide and spread the message of peace and goodwill through music, culture and entertainment.

IPPA’s main aim is to promote Pakistan – a country with a great history that boasts diverse cultures, literature, natural beauty, cuisine and talent — all of which are waiting to be explored and recognised by people round the globe. IPPA’s mission is to play an instrumental role through all its events held abroad in projecting this hitherto untapped potential of Pakistan.   Its mission is also to improve foreign relations by bringing them business opportunities, thereby indirectly facilitating Pakistani businesses to export their own culture and businesses abroad as well. IPPA is also actively working for overseas Pakistanis to provide them more business opportunities. 

How it all began

A joint-venture between Ali Malik and Mukhtar Ahmed, the co-founders of IPPA, the company was launched in 2016. So far three successful events have been held – two in the UK (2017 and 2018) and one in Norway (2019). In 2020, owing to the pandemic the awards had to be cancelled and are now scheduled to take place in October 31 2021, in Turkey. 

About the organisers

The founders and brains behind IPPA are Ali Malik, CEO Vision Events International, and Mukhtar Ahmad Chohan, CEO Lollywood Entertainment. They have one common goal — to promote Pakistani talent on an international scale and present a soft image of Pakistan abroad.
