You are cordially invited to the 17th ASIA Future Forum!
The 2026 Asia Future Forum will be held under the theme of
'In an Era of Upheaval: The Qualities of a Leading Nation '
This Asia Future Forum aims to collectively diagnose this era of suffocating uncertainty.
Amid the shards of shattered trust, we seek to jointly sketch out a blueprint for a new social contract that will sustain the lives of the next generation.
With the aim of 'Finding a balance between Prosperity and Sustainability,'
we invite you to this arena where the common challenges of Asian countries will be searched and ways to cooperate will be explored.
