FAQ
- Find answers to common questions about the Asia Visionary Summit.
What is the Asia Visionary Summit?
AVS is a new kind of gathering, intimate, invitation-only, and set in the spiritual heart of Bhutan. It brings together fewer than 500 of the world’s most consequential thinkers, founders, and leaders to explore bold ideas transforming Asia and the world. More than a conference, it is a confluence of purpose, where tradition meets innovation and conscience guides community and capital.
When and where does AVS take place?
The Asia Visionary Summit takes place November 6–8, 2026. The first two days unfold at Dungkar Dzong in Paro, Bhutan, a spiritual sanctuary for dialogue and deep thinking. The third day moves to Changlimithang Stadium in Thimphu for the Raven Concert, a celebration open to thousands.
Who will be in the room?
AVS is invitation-only, with fewer than 500 delegates. The gathering brings together Heads of State and cabinet ministers, Fortune 500 CEOs, world-renowned scientists, Silicon Valley founders, sovereign wealth leaders, and cultural and spiritual voices, united by a shared belief that wisdom and progress are inseparable.
What themes does AVS explore?
AVS is structured around five defining pillars of our time: Ecology & Conservation (Bhutan as a model, nature as a precondition for progress), Artificial Intelligence (AI as a civilisational force requiring wisdom), Clean Energy & Climate (the transition defining this decade in Asia), Medicine & Human Longevity (from genomics to equitable access), and Conscious Leadership (purpose-driven capital and values-aligned governance).
What is Road to AVS?
Road to AVS is AVS’s flagship founder discovery programme, travelling across South and Southeast Asia, including Thailand, Japan, India, Nepal, Vietnam, and more, to identify purpose-driven entrepreneurs. Selected founders are invited to the Summit in Bhutan, gain global visibility, and can explore incorporation within Gelephu Mindfulness City, Bhutan’s emerging hub for mindful, sustainable enterprise.
What is the Raven Concert?
The Raven Concert is the grand closing ceremony of AVS, bringing together over 10,000 people under the stars at Changlimithang Stadium in Thimphu. Featuring artists from across Asia blending folk, pop, and sacred sounds, it is a powerful finale inspired by Bhutan’s national guardian, an open celebration where the ideas of the summit ripple outward into communities and public consciousness.
