We Invest in Global Leaders with Asian Perspectives

Today’s complex world demands leaders who are well-versed in global affairs and have experience in, knowledge of, and connections to Asia

Mission and Vision

In this fractured world, there is a tremendous need and a huge opportunity to bring people together.

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.

Women - with additional support - drive prosperity and re-invest in their community and the next generation.

We aspire to build from the ground up a community focusing on global leadership with Asian perspectives.

We aim to build a new kind of organization that is nimble, efficient, impactful, and global from day one.

Our Work

We are building a community of global women leaders and their allies through two initiatives. The GWA Fellowship program brings together a cohort of next-generation female leaders who have demonstrated the passion and will to solve global complex challenges. Our Global Community Initiative is achieved through local chapters and global events - all aimed at amplifying and highlighting the deep knowledge of Asia and the global experience of our members.
