2019 Keynote Speakers, Panelists, & Moderators

The U.S.-Asia Entertainment Summit is the most prestigious gathering of dealmakers, thought leaders and content creators in American and Asian entertainment. Founded in 2010, the Summit created a forum for Hollywood and Chinese filmmakers to discuss collaboration and quickly became the premier U.S. gathering of its kind. Now in its 10th year, this signature Asia Society Southern California event has expanded the focus from U.S.-China film to encompass trends and forces transforming entertainment more broadly and across Asia.
