Unicorn Strategies in Southeast Asia: Implications for US and Asian Collaborative Innovation<https://gatech.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_VKI7eS5zT-OQiCvuRSDnNQ>

Wednesday, November 2, 2022, 5 pm PDT

This program is designed for entrepreneurs, investors, managers and professionals as well as researchers interested in the ASEAN region.  The emergence of Southeast Asia as a regional power center for innovation with a GDP of $3.2 trillion (5th largest economy in the world) and a population of 655 million (which could be the 3rd largest country), indicates, by all accounts, that the region and its component economies is heading to a renewed economic boom, fast becoming a global innovation hub in the digital era. The region has recently given rise to many unicorns, surpassing on this dimension many other countries and regions. To address this new unicorn phenomenon, the webinar addresses extant knowledge about the development of unicorns in Southeast Asia, and what has made it possible for startups in the region to garner this level of success in such a short period of time. This webinar will not only share inspiring start-up stories but also consider explanatory frameworks with a view to predict future trends and explore collaboration opportunities for startups and technology companies in the United States and Southeast Asia.
