2018 Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative Summit

The three-day YSEALI Summit, to be held in Singapore in early December 2018, will gather approximately 150 participants aged 18-35 around the theme "The United States and ASEAN: Partners in Growth and Innovation." The Summit, which this year marks YSEALI's fifth anniversary, will serve as a space for young innovators and entrepreneurs from both the United States and ASEAN to connect with U.S. companies and institutions focused on ASEAN. Throughout the Summit, participants will showcase projects, receive mentorship, explore opportunities to expand their work, exchange ideas on how to foster economic growth in their communities, and find avenues for stronger economic cooperation between the United States and ASEAN.
