We’re currently developing our Bett Asia 2023 programme. In the meantime, take a look at our 2022 Leadership Summit agenda:
The two-day Leadership Summit will explore topics nominated by policy and decision makers from K12 to HE which address key opportunities to improve education systems and further student outcomes across Asia.
The morning keynotes are tailored towards the entire APAC education community across all phases of education, followed by dedicated afternoon HE and K12 streams featuring workshops, demonstrations, discussions and presentations.
Please use the below filters to curate your own Leadership Summit programme and find the sessions that will best address your setting-specific needs and priorities:
