Asia comes to Berlin!

The Asia-Pacific region boasts top growth rates which makes it a major influence on the global future. Since 1997, the APW have been providing a platform for Euro-Asiatic exchange on issues of global relevance related to the economy, politics, research, science, culture and society, such as smart cities, Industry 4.0, digitization, as well as startups and the innovations they generate. This year's focus will be on the aspects of a "startup city" with debates revolving around issues such as venture capital, incubators, innovation labs, internationalisation, entrepreneurship and startup policy. As part of conferences, workshops, delegation tours and an embassy day a particular focus will be on the startup capital as well as other Asian startup centres including Hong Kong, Seoul, Shenzhen, Singapore and Tokyo.

The APW are organised by the Senate Department for Economics, Technology and Research in partnership with Berlin Partner for Business and Technology GmbH.
