The AsiaGlobal Dialogue was inaugurated in 2012 as the Fung Global Institute's premier flagship conference for constructive dialogue to bring out fresh insights and Asian perspectives on global issues. AGD continues to provide an opportunity to showcase the work of the Institute, its research, and its themes, and for thought leaders to come together to explore issues in an informed and objective manner.
