The Boao Forum for Asia (BFA) Annual Conference 2024 opened today in tropical Hainan, bringing together global leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers to tackle pressing challenges under the theme 'Asia and the World: Common Challenges, Shared Responsibilities.'
Running March 26–29, the four-day event features high-energy panels, CEO dialogues, and roundtable discussions aimed at fostering cross-border collaboration. From tech innovation to sustainable growth, here's what's buzzing:
Global Economy 2.0: How Asia can lead post-pandemic recovery while balancing climate goals

With over 2,000 attendees from 60+ countries and regions, the forum is dubbed the 'Asian Davos'—but with more coconut palms and beachside brainstorming sessions.
