ASIA MAJOR
FOR LEADING AMERICAN COMPANIES, ASEAN
IS NOW FRONT AND CENTER—OR SHOULD BE
In the half-century since its 1967 founding, the Association of SE Asian Nations (ASEAN) has
gone from esoteric to essential in the eyes of the world’s economic and business leaders.
ASEAN’s 10 member counties have a combined GDP of $2.2 trillion and are widely
considered the most important 21st century global growth engine.
In “Asia Major,” our annual ASEAN business section, we will partner with the US-ASEAN
Business Council to produce an in-depth look at the 2014 ASEAN economy with a pulse
check on key indicators like FDI, import and export and other trade environment updates.
This data and information-heavy special text-and-ad section will appear in all copies of
Sept 15 Businessweek, running to our full Global circulation (rate base: 980,000). Advertisers
will receive dedicated text coverage in the ASEAN story as a means of promoting trade,
travel and their efforts to build relationships and new businesses in the ASEAN region.
Please ask us about details on text coverage—including ways we can build interviews with
your executives into the story—and information about further digital and mobile amplification.
