ASIA LGBTQ SUMMIT 2018
Let your true colors shine
Asia LGBTQ Summit establishes Philippines among the elite nations of the world that recognize and support diversity and inclusion in business and society.
Asia LGBTQ Summit recognizes the millions of people who still live in shame and fear because of the special way they were put on this earth. Help us spread the word that ALL people can reach their highest limits because of their personal contributions and not be hindered by their personal orientations.
Long known for being caring and supportive, Filipinos are leading the way in Asia in harnessing the special abilities and commitments of diverse people. Large organizations in Philippines already report LGBTQ employee participation rates as high as 20 and 30 percent.
Asia LGBTQ Summit features pioneering leaders speaking on inclusion strategies, common challenges and future opportunities in establishing your organization as world class.
Be with us for Asia LGBTQ Summit to make your organization a truly open and inclusive one for all people — especially those who associate themselves as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ).
