The Asia School of Business (ASB) is the newest MIT Sloan collaboration, supported by Bank Negara Malaysia, the Central Bank of Malaysia. The establishment of this world class graduate business school in Kuala Lumpur will offer both degree and non-degree programs to serve the needs of Malaysia, ASEAN, South Asia, China, and parts of the Middle-East and Africa. ASB’s mission is to be a global knowl

edge and learning center infused with regional expertise, insights and perspectives of Asian and emerging market economies. The MBA Curriculum at Asia School of Business

MIT Sloan’s world-renowned faculty and ASB’s residential faculty will deliver an 18-month, energetic, flexible and innovative core curriculum deeply embedded in the Asian emerging economies context. Each ASB student will build his or her own specialized path and gain real experience through multiple action learning (individual and group) projects, in collaboration with ASB Asian and Multinational corporate partners, in locations across Asia. An exciting component of our ASB curriculum is the 4 weeks of immersion at MIT Sloan School in Cambridge, MA, USA, combined with a two-week USA trek to “go and see” American technology, manufacturing, and financial sectors.. Special attention will be dedicated to active reflection throughout the curriculum, materialized in a unique portfolio of projects that capture the entire ASB student experience.

Leadership in uncertain times calls for courage, adaptability, and a global perspective. 🌍

We were honored to welcome Professor Melissa Nobles, Chancellor and Class of 1922 Professor of Political Science at MIT, to the Asia School of Business for an inspiring fireside chat on “Daring to Be Different: Leadership in Geopolitically Uncertain Times.”

Moderated by Professor Renato Lima de Oliveira, the conversation explored how leaders can navigate geopolitical uncertainty, build trust, and prepare organizations — and future generations, for a rapidly changing world.

Professor Nobles’ visit also included the “Biz Titans Roundtable - Building Competitive Economies through Talent and Innovation: A View from MIT,” where she joined distinguished leaders from business, academia, and the public sector for a private dialogue on strengthening talent and innovation ecosystems.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and made this a memorable exchange of ideas.

What if the way you engage investors could say more than you think?

At AMPLIFIE: Forum on Investor Engagement, co-organised by the Asia School of Business (ASB) and GDInstitute, we bring together voices from across the ecosystem to unpack what meaningful investor engagement really looks like — from AGMs and shareholder conversations to the signals that shape confidence and performance.

Different perspectives. Practical insights.
One goal: better engagement for better value creation.

It’s time to AMPLIFIE the conversation.
