Bett Asia 2019: Building a Change Culture to Deliver 21st Century Learning

At Bett we believe in creating a better future for students by transforming education. Our mission is to bring together people, ideas, practices and technologies so that educators and learners can fulfil their potential.

Now established across the globe, the Bett series consists of 5 unique shows including: Bett Asia, Bett LatAm, Bett Mena, Bett Brazil and Bett London. Combined our international series attracts almost 60,000 educators, leaders and practitioners alongside 1200+ technology and solution providers.

Now in its fifth edition, Bett Asia is the region’s leading education conference and expo taking place on 12-13 March 2019 at the Mandarin Oriental, Kuala Lumpur. Bett Asia will gather the region’s most senior education leaders, educators and innovators to celebrate the future of education.

As APAC education leaders struggle to build a change culture, they believe 21st century skills are imperative for pupil success. Research undertaken by Bett has unearthed consistent challenges across the Asia-Pacific region. This knowledge will set the tone for the 2019 programme within both the Summit and the Expo. Therefore the key theme is ‘Building a change culture to deliver 21st century learning’. In line with this, our cutting-edge summit will discuss the transformation of education and discover the innovation that will inspire change across the Asia Pacific region. Whilst our Expo will showcase the practical tools, techniques and training to empower educators to transform learning in the classroom and beyond.

The Leadership Summit agenda is curated of carefully chosen expert speakers that will explore topics nominated by policy and decision makers from K-12 to TVET which address key opportunities to improve education systems and further student outcomes across the region and beyond. The Morning keynotes will be delivered by high-level speakers, followed by afternoon breakout streams of workshops, demonstrations, discussions and presentations.

The expo will showcase practical tools, techniques and training that will empower educators to transform learning in the classroom and within institutions. Visitors will be able to test the latest products, gain valuable tips and tricks and network with other educators to discuss the transformation and innovations happening within the edtech space.
