SCMP’s China Conference to debut in Astana this September
Esteemed China Conference series in Kazakh capital will highlight opportunities in fast-growing Central Asia
The South China Morning Post will host its China Conference in Kazakhstan’s capital in September, following a high-level Hong Kong delegation led by the city’s leader to Central Asia last month, marking the first such event organised by a local media outlet in the region.
Announcing the move at the SCMP China Conference 2026 on Tuesday, publisher Tammy Tam said the event in Astana would enable participants to explore new opportunities while gaining first-hand experience of the dynamism in the fast-growing region.
The global series convenes renowned experts and real insiders to explore China’s macro trends and emerging opportunities, and serves as a platform for global business leaders, investors and innovators to engage with and grasp the pulse of China.
The global series also serves as a platform for global business leaders, investors and innovators to better understand China’s development trajectory.
“Its footprint has expanded to the Greater Bay Area, Southeast Asia, the United States, and will reach Central Asia later this year,” Tam said.
During Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu’s visit in June, Hong Kong signed 96 agreements with Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, worth US$1.65 billion.
