Asia Society Northern California hosts private Roundtable briefings with industry leaders every month in San Francisco and Silicon Valley. Program topics are around the headlines of the day – to keep our members up-to-date on the latest news and trends coming out of Asia. These monthly programs started in September 2017 and have grown in popularity to generate wait-lists quickly. Many of these events are off-the record to encourage open debate and discussion.
