The aim of the Young Entrepreneurs & Leaders Speaker Series is to showcase, inspire, celebrate and connect young entrepreneurs and leaders that are making a difference to their societies.
We bring young Australian experts and speakers to select countries in the world, hosting week-long delegations running workshops, Q&As, forums, keynote speeches and events that gather a broad range of society together to discuss important topics of collaboration.

Learnings from Laos: connection & collaboration for social impact
When we think about social impact, there’s few better places in the region that Australia has had such a strong and supportive role in boosting the people and economy. The needs of being a least developed nation, and the opportunities that Australia has helped to pioneer through its aid program and commerce, are an interesting departure point of this article series: ‘Australia now: Youth Making an Impact in ASEAN’.
