Central Hong Kong WCD is holding the 4th ASPAC Institute in Hong Kong on September 27 & 28. The ASPAC region has started to move the needle on increasing gender parity on boards over the past several years, but there is still room to grow. WCD’s ASPAC Institute creates an opportunity to hear from regional corporate, governmental and executive leaders who share thought-provoking ideas that will help members to add to their arsenal of knowledge. WCD’s ASPAC Institute will consist of a dinner and a full day, high-powered idea forum exploring compelling issues on the minds of today’s directors. The program will frame critical topics, discuss innovative ideas, and help directors to reach constructive solutions. There will be keynotes, panels, roundtable discussion groups, and synergistic engagement in a community of trust that brings a diversity of perspectives together. Keynote Speaker The Honorable Mrs. Carrie Lam
