Description

Join us as we take a moment at year's end to peer into Asia's future, and put some of our own experts on the spot: Evan Medeiros, Ruchir Sharma, Josette Sheeran, and others, moderated by Tom Nagorski

Event Details

From the North Korean nuclear threat to rising tensions between India and Pakistan, the fate of the Trans-Pacific Partnership to continued speculation about the global economy, what will the new year bring and what trends should we watch for in business and politics? Which leaders will fare best, and which others will be challenged? What are the storm clouds gathering that might not be readily apparent – and where might we find the silver linings? This year’s edition will take into account the aftermath of the 2016 U.S. elections, and its implications for Asia and the world.
