Asia Liberty Forum 2017

Atlas Network is partnering with think tanks across the globe to bring regional liberty forums, allowing friends of liberty from across one continent or region to come together for professional development training, competitions for funding, strategy discussions, networking, and much more.

Atlas Network is delighted to again partner with the Centre for Civil Society to host the 2017 Asia Liberty Forum, a public celebration aimed at advancing liberty and free markets in Asia, by bringing together 250 champions of freedom: intellectuals, think tank leaders, policy makers, business leaders, and change makers who will present their work and views on various facets of modern Asia. Champions of free people and free markets from across Asia and the world are invited to Mumbai for two days of leadership development, sharing of best practices, and discussion of the policy battles that lie ahead.

The conference will include keynote addresses and breakout sessions, superior networking opportunities, and friendly competition among think tanks. The forum provides a unique opportunity to interact closely with distinguished experts across various fields; some who are tackling Asia's unique development challenges, and others who bring international experience and perspectives towards charting our future course. The Asia Liberty Forum Gala Dinner on the evening of the 11th will feature Atlas Network’s announcement of 2017 Asia Liberty Award winner. To apply, click here.

• Elevator Pitch Competition, where participants will present their 60-second pitch with the chance to win a prize
