| Asia Summit 2016 |
With the theme of “Forces Shaping Asia,” this year’s Asia Summit in Singapore brought 600-plus participants together for more than 30 public and private sessions over three days. Panels addressed eight key themes for the region’s future, including economic integration, capital markets reform and security dynamics. To deepen the discussions, the Institute released four research reports on Asian themes shortly before the Summit. A number of participants told us that the Asia Summit has become one of the region's must-attend events for leaders in business, finance and policy.
