This roundtable discussion explores how nations, industries, businesses, and communities are responding to an era of geopolitical uncertainty, climate-related disruptions, and societal transformation. Across Asia and beyond, firms are repositioning their strategies in response to shifting geopolitical dynamics, while societies and vulnerable communities face increasing challenges arising from natural disasters and extreme weather events.

We are privileged to have five distinguished experts from diverse disciplinary backgrounds to share their insights on these pressing issues. Drawing on their research and professional experience, they will discuss the challenges confronting nations, industries, and communities, as well as the strategies and policy measures that may strengthen resilience and adaptive capacity.
