About Us
welcome to the Asia Leaders Series
“When Trade Stops, War Starts”, Jack Ma.
Through a regular series of private meetings between top leaders in Asia, and their counterparts in Europe, we are able to address common misconceptions, facilitate dialogue, and establish important new relationships that bring us closer to building a more inclusive, collaborative world.
MeetingsSmall Meetings with Big Purpose
Bridging the divide between the East and West
Dialogue
Through the diligent moderating of discussions among top leaders of diverse backgrounds, we strive to address misconceptions and identify common ground in the values and beliefs that unite us.
Exchange
Our mission is to bring leaders who see the world differently together to share experiences, and to learn from one another. By temporarily putting our differences aside, we are able to uncover the depth of one another's worlds.
Trust
Trust is not something that emerges in one evening. It takes time to alleveate fear and reveal values, beliefs and purpose. By bringing leaders together in a safe, and open environment, we feed into what is inevitably a long-term endeavour.

Understanding how leaders in Asia think...
As China surpasses the USA as the world’s largest economy, and Asia as a region grows in prosperity and prominence on the world-stage, leaders in the West are challenged to understand Asia in all its diversity and complexity.
Exclusive gatherings of top leaders between Europe and Asia
Meetings where pioneers from Asia come into direct contact with leaders in Europe, to share ideas, broaden minds, and esablish trust. Our intention is to encourage an increase in the flows of capital between the two regions, and draw attention to pressing world issues.
