You are invited to join us in an intimate Global Affairs conversation led by Summer Song, cross-cultral content and experience creator.

Led by a talk that distils complex global issues into simple concepts, you are welcome to contribute to conversations as much as you wish. Gain new perspectives to make more informed decisions in work and life. This is a safe space for newcomers.
Community learning: Learn together with other curious professionals from around Asia (or the world), who will become your future collaborators, clients or co-founders, as part of your weekly routine.
Led by an expert: Our discussions are guided by industry influencers shaping their fields.
