Connect, share, and learn from your peers at our flagship forums, which meet regularly to debate topical business challenges.
Become a member
Our goal is to help companies build good businesses in Asia. We do that via peer-group forums, which provide our members with a network for market insights and a sounding board for key decisions.
Unrivalled Business Insights
At forum sessions, you talk with senior executives running MNC operations across Asia. From their daily operations they know about market performance and risks.
Their insights are invaluable, as are their stories of successes and failures.
Regular Reports and Data
Our market reports and Excels provide 5-year forecasts for the 14 main markets to support planning. Through call-up support and in-house presentations, we help members use the data.
Our forum reports capture the debates on strategy and tactics ranging from regional planning to HR, sourcing, M&A, and finance.
Connect with Asia Experts
The members of our Forum Advisory Board have decades of experience running MNC operations in Asia. They know how Asia’s markets work and they know how MNCs work. They are used to briefing visiting boards and CEOs.
Via catch-up chats, they can share their experience and help you find useful connections if you are new to the region. We can also connect you with the region’s leading consultants and analysts as many are occasional guest commentators at our forum sessions.
Personal Support for your team
We arrange Executive Team Support (ETS) for up to five of your direct reports as we know that travel and work obligations can prevent attendance at meetings. ETS members are invited to forum sessions appropriate to their title (to ensure good peer group debate), receive all reports, and can call us for support.
We want to make sure the value of membership is captured by your company even if you are travelling. We monitor program utilization and will engage with you to ensure we adjust our delivery to fit your circumstances.
