สองภาษา
Dual fluency
In a fragmenting world, the winners are the ones navigating the divide.
A single day to connect with entrepreneurs, operators, policymakers, and investors navigating a fragmenting world.
Capital flows are bifurcating. Supply chains are reshoring. Talent is choosing sides. And yet, the most consequential companies, careers, and policy outcomes of the next decade will be built by operators who can hold two playbooks at once.
ABC 2026 convenes the people doing exactly that: CEOs scaling across hemispheres, regulators redrawing the rules, investors deploying through the cycle, and the next generation of Asian and Asian-American leaders defining what comes next.
Thirty-two years
of vital conversations.
Since 1994, ABC has been the largest student-run conference on Asia in North America, It's a platform where heads of state share the room with founders, and where capital meets the cultures it claims to understand.
The conference has hosted heads of state, founders, and capital allocators shaping Asia and its diaspora for more than three decades. A selection from past editions, indicative of the caliber the 2026 program will continue.
2026 speakers to be announced.
Reach the next generation of Asia's decision-makers.
ABC convenes an audience that no other student-run conference can: HBS, the broader Harvard ecosystem, alumni operators across Asia and the diaspora, and the senior leaders who shape the region. Partnership puts your brand in the room.
