Asia Briefing LIVE is the premier executive forum taking the pulse of a complex Asia and Australia’s relationships in the region. As Asia emerges from the COVID-19 pandemic and starts the recovery, it faces stark new realities. The U.S. – China competition is now structural and all-encompassing. Economies and regional connectivity are weakened. Democracy is in decline and illiberalism is on the rise. Populations are anxious about climate change, gender equality and human rights. Yet, Asia is also showing remarkable resilience and strong signs of economic recovery.

The theme of this year’s forum is: Rethink, Recovery, Renewal. Is Asia of 2021 at an inflection point? Can Asia’s delicate balance of power and economic dynamism be maintained amidst a dangerous cocktail of security, political and economic challenges?

Asia Briefing LIVE is presented in partnership with Bloomberg, the leading global business media company, with all sessions moderated by Bloomberg’s award-winning journalists and editors. Asia Briefing LIVE is presented in partnership with Major Partner La Trobe Financial. The forum brings together Australian and global CEOs, business and non-profit leaders with academics, analysts and policymakers for a deep dive into Asia’s geopolitics, economies, and business.
