"Through Energy Asia, our ambition is to establish the region's foremost platform for thought leadership on the energy transition, a space that not only showcases bold ideas and innovation, but also drives meaningful, tangible action.'
"We also aim to bridge the gap between emerging and developed economies by fostering cross-sector and cross-border collaboration. Only through inclusive and equitable dialogue can we unlock the full potential of Asia's diverse energy landscape and ensure that no one is left behind,' she added.
A new feature this year is the Energy Asia Global Leadership Executive Forum, a closed-door session for C-suite leaders from energy, finance, technology and professional services. The forum will aim to align investment strategies and scale up technology deployment.
