The Milken Institute will hold its ninth annual Asia Summit from September 28 – 
30 at the Four Seasons Hotel in Singapore. The three-day Summit will host 
regional and global leaders representing more than 23 countries. Under the 
theme "The World Transformed", this year's Summit seeks to confront some of the 
negative consequences of humanity's progress, such as environmental degradation 
and economic inequalities, while elevating critical issues that are driving 
growth, catalyzing development, and transforming Asia.

Departing from the pandemic years, the 2022 Asia Summit will be a fully 
in-person event, welcoming more than 1,200 participants, with an online 
livestream broadcast for all public panels. In-person participants can interact 
with experts and leaders through a series of networking receptions, private 
dinners, and exclusive roundtable discussions. 

Over the course of three days, attendees will have the opportunity to gain 
insights from leaders in government, finance, technology, sports, and more, 
including: Tengku Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz, Minister of Finance, Malaysia; Jean 
Hynes, CEO, Wellington Management; Hiraoki Kitano, Senior Executive Vice 
President and CTO Corporate Executive Officer, Sony Group Corporation; Tharman 
Shanmugaratnam, Senior Minister and Coordinating Minister for Social Policies, 
Prime Minister's Office, Singapore; and Rohit Sipahimalani, Chief Investment 
Officer, Temasek; among others.

"In recent years, a series of converging macro forces and social changes are 
transforming the world as we know. From technology and globalization to 
pandemic response and the rise of artificial intelligence, these forces will 
continue to shape and reshape every aspect of our lives," said Laura Deal 
Lacey, Executive Director of the Asia Center. "Asia is at the heart of the 
transformation that defines the global agenda. With our finger on the pulse, 
our efforts at the Milken Institute in Asia bring together leaders to share 
valuable insights and highlight critical conversations on issues affecting the 
region, which often have global implications."
