AEPF2026 Concludes Successfully in Singapore, Connecting Economics and Policy Researchers from Around the World

In this episode of Global Economic Press, Alex Brady discusses the successful conclusion of the inaugural Asia Economics and Policy Forum 2026 in Singapore. Organized by East Asia Research, the event served as a new platform for international research exchange in economics, public policy, sustainable development, and green growth. Held at the Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium, the conference brought together researchers, academics, policymakers, and students from around the world under the theme "Green Growth, Financing and Building a Sustainable Future." The forum featured 17 research presentations from 42 researchers across 11 countries, highlighting the growing international interest in these critical areas. The event also included the launch of the Undergraduate Research Conference, providing young researchers with an opportunity to gain international conference experience and develop academic presentation skills. Asia Economics and Policy Forum 2026 was honored to have keynote presentations from Dr. Florence Lei and Dr. Jenny Phillips, who shared insights on China's 'Dual Carbon' goals and the drivers of social enterprises in Macao, respectively. The conference emphasized collaboration and networking, allowing participants to meet potential co-authors and develop new international research connections. Selected papers from the forum will be published in the forthcoming Springer Nature volume, further contributing to academic discussions on economics and sustainable development. Building on the success of this inaugural event, the forum aims to continue as a premier platform for sharing ideas and building academic connections in Asia.
