About the Summit
The 2022 YSEALI Summit will take place in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, from 5 to 9 December 2022.
The theme of this year's summit is the economic empowerment . The ASEAN region is one of the fastest growing economies in the world. Young people under the age of 35 - who represent 65% of the ASEAN population - have enormous potential to drive sustainable economic growth, innovation and entrepreneurship in their own communities and across the region and the world.
Throughout our three-day high-energy summit, 150 YSEALI alumni will be joined by leading experts and mentors from around the world to explore this topic through dialogue, site visits, networking and the creation of collaborative solutions. But that's not all: participants will also develop new leadership skills, enjoy cultural activities, build lasting professional connections and friendships and much more!
