Asia Days 2020
​Panel discussion

Event Canceled

Due to the current spread of COVID-19, the Closing Event with the address by the Indian ambassador and the following Apéro will not take place. It is a preventive measure in response to the high uncertainty regarding the development of COVID-19. We did not take this decision light-heartedly and it has been taken in consultation with the Indian Embassy and the University of St. Gallen.  We are sorry for any inconvenience!
Nevertheless, all of our workshops are considered low risk (luckily on a smaller scale) and will take place as planned, so if you would like to get some insights into other interesting topics check out our workshops on https://www.eventbrite.com/o/asia-club-29680961473!

That it is home to almost 18% of the world's population and that the economy has grown almost six-fold in the last 20 years? So what can we expect from the world's fastest growing economy in the future? What demands will this complex country have to face? Find out more at the Indian ambassadors’ address on „India 2050 - Expectations and Challenges“ at the Asia Days on 12 March, 18.30 o’clock in Audimax of the University of St. Gallen!
