Asia's Next Economies Forum

About this event

The Asia’s Next Economies Forum marks a moment of profound choice and possibility: for this region to write its own script for a better future economy, informed by local realities and voices, and by lessons from pioneers. Held at Bangkok Climate Action Week 2026, on the eve of the Annual Meetings of the World Bank and International Monetary Fund, the Forum brings together people already demonstrating better economic practices and models rooted in the mutual flourishing of humans and natural ecosystems, showing that values-led and purpose-driven economies are capable of delivering prosperity in a rapidly changing world. Participants gather not as delegates representing institutions, but as people with a stake in shaping a regional economy that cultivates abundance.
