Securing Australia's Asian destiny

Australia faces such a complex mix of risks and opportunities in Asia. Understanding how to navigate growing strategic turbulence in the region while deepening and diversifying trade and investment ties has become a critical issue for Australian governments and businesses. Hearing leading government and business voices from Asia is critical to developing an informed understanding of the region’s evolving economic and strategic dynamics.

The Financial Review Asia Summit, in partnership with Asia Society Australia will bring together some of Asia and Australia’s most influential political and business leaders, thinkers, strategists, entrepreneurs and technology experts. It will provide fresh perspectives on how Asia is transforming Australia’s future through geopolitical competition, economic growth and technological and social change. Most of all, it will be a national forum to explore the tensions, trade-offs and synergies between Australia’s effort to advance both its prosperity and its security in the world’s most important region. The Summit will be curated in conjunction with Asia Society experts and moderated and covered in depth by The Financial Review's leading journalists, ensuring nationwide coverage of the event by Australia’s only national business newspaper.
