About Us
Our Story
GWA is born out of the desire to highlight the benefits of having a global mindset with a deeper understanding of Asia. More than 50% of the world’s population lives in Asia and in a decade, Asia’s economy will be larger than a 1/3 of the global economy. It has become increasingly clear that Asia offers some of the most globally adaptable solutions and innovative ideas.
Global Women Asia (GWA) aims to grow a global community of global women leaders and their allies who are versed in global affairs and have experience in, knowledge of, and connections to Asia.
