Join us for a special event in collaboration with all Asia Society centers, for a discussion with Tom Nagorski, former Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Asia Society. Many of our members know him well from watching open our programs, on stage in conversation with hundreds of experts sharing their perspectives on a wide-range of topics in Asia. Behind the scenes, he was present for the launch of the Asia Society Policy Institute, the Asia Society magazine, and the openings of Asia Society’s offices in Zurich and Tokyo. Having spent nearly a decade as one of the key leaders of this institution, he will reflect with colleagues and friends on how the institution has changed, reminisce on some of our most memorable events from during his tenure, and share his perspective on the need for more Asia literacy and knowledge today in an ever-changing world.
