This summit will take place December 3-5\, 2018 in Singapore at the Carlton Hotel\, bringing together 150 participants from ASEAN countries and the United States. Applications will be accepted through the online application form until October 5\, 2018.  \nBackground \nLaunched in 2013\, the Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative (YSEALI) is the U.S. Department of State’s signature program to strengthen leadership development and networking in Southeast Asia. Through a variety of programs and engagements\, YSEALI seeks to build the leadership capabilities of youth in the region\, strengthen ties between the United States and Southeast Asia\, and nurture an ASEAN community of leaders who work across borders to solve common issues. \nThe 2018 YSEALI Summit\, which marks YSEALI’s fifth anniversary\, will gather participants around the theme “The United States and ASEAN: Partners in Growth and Innovation.” The summit will showcase innovative approaches to economic cooperation and growth by U.S. companies\, organizations\, and institutions present in ASEAN and allow young innovators and entrepreneurs from both the United States and ASEAN to connect with each other and with participating experts. Throughout the summit\, participants will showcase projects\, receive mentorship\, explore opportunities to expand their work\, exchange ideas on how to foster economic growth in their communities\, and find avenues for stronger economic cooperation between the United States and ASEAN.

Throughout the course of the summit\, participants will learn the “lean startup methodology” of creating a successful enterprise\, and will work on collaborative group projects\, developing a minimum viable product showcase that satisfies the above-mentioned criteria\, while employing each group members’ skills and expertise.
