Asia Society’s Asia 21 Next Generation Fellows Summit in Singapore to host INSEAD Executive Leadership Sessions

December 2, 2024 – INSEAD, one of the world's leading and largest graduate business schools, will be providing two exclusive executive leadership sessions at an Asia Society summit in Singapore aimed at fostering innovation and strategic thinking among the next generation of Asian leaders.

The Asia 21 Next Generation Fellows Summit, organized by Asia Society, is a premier gathering of young leaders from across the Asia-Pacific region. This year's summit will take place from December 6-8, 2024, focusing on addressing the most pressing challenges and opportunities in the region through collaborative and forward-thinking approaches.

Dean Sameer Hasija of INSEAD Asia Campus said, "We are pleased to participate in the Asia 21 Summit and contribute to shaping the future of leadership in the Asia-Pacific region.” He added, “We look forward to engaging with these next-generation leaders and supporting them as they navigate the challenges and opportunities of the future."

Dr. Kyung-wha Kang, President and CEO of Asia Society, also shared her thoughts on the partnership: "The world is pivoting to Asia politically, culturally, and economically, and Asia Society’s role is to make sense of it all – how global and regional dynamics are changing, and how to address challenges and opportunities together. We are honored to have INSEAD's support in this mission, and we look forward to the impactful discussions and outcomes that will emerge from their executive leadership sessions."

The sessions led by INSEAD will cover topics such as strategic decision-making, innovation in leadership, and the importance of ethical governance. These sessions are designed to equip participants with the skills and knowledge necessary to lead effectively in an increasingly interconnected and dynamic world.

The Asia 21 Next Generation Fellowship was established by the Asia Society in 2006 with a goal of supporting the next generation of leaders in Asia, to promote mutual understanding and effective collaboration between them to keep the region peaceful and prosperous. Today, Asia 21 stands as the region's foremost emerging leaders initiative and network. Asia 21 supports and nurtures talent, ideas, and networks in the world's most dynamic region through a community of over 1,000 alumni from 40 countries including ministers and ambassadors, tech entrepreneurs and artists, company CEOs and social activists, and journalists and non-profit founders.
