The event promises to become one of the most awaited regional events in 2024. The ACCA Asia-Pacific Forum 2024 aims to take elements of human resource development, economic collaboration, and sustainable development as the foundation, from which to build a strategy that unites the entire Asia-Pacific region for shared prosperity in the future.

We are in front of an important period, at which we need collaborative efforts and bold initiatives to shape a brighter and more sustainable future.”

The event's theme “Giao” was inspired by Giao Linh, a traditional Vietnamese costume with two connected sleeves that perfectly represents the event's spirit of connection, solidarity, and cooperation. By choosing "Giao" as the theme, ACCA Asia-Pacific Forum 2024 highlights its commitment to "weaving" a sustainable, successful future from diverse perspectives and perspectives across the region.

The forum will welcome the participation of delegates who are government officials, leaders of corporations, and organisations from many fields in different countries, especially the Asia Pacific region. They will participate in discussion sessions on promoting green and sustainable regional economic growth, as well as the future of education, through technological and digital innovations.

Many globally renowned speakers will also share valuable insights on applying technology to promote regional trade and applying AI to sustainable education.

Director of ACCA Asia Pacific Region Pulkit Abrol said, “Advanced educational methods play an important role in developing a workforce of financial and accounting professionals. By integrating cutting-edge technology and promoting innovative educational methods, we will equip financial professionals with the skills so they can confidently lead, even when facing challenges of international scale.”
