Boao Forum for Asia (Chinese: 博鰲亞洲論壇; pinyin: Bó'áo Yàzhōu Lùntán), abbreviated as BFA, is a non-governmental, not-for-profit international organization modelled after the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.
As a non-government, non-profit international organization, Boao Forum For Asia (BFA) is a prestigious forum for leaders in government, business and academia in Asia and other continents to share visions on the most pressing issues in this dynamic region and the world at large.
The Forum is committed to promoting regional economic integration and bringing Asian countries even closer to their development goals. Initiated in 1998 by Fidel V. Ramos, former President of the Philippines, Bob Hawke, former Prime Minister of Australia, and Morihiro Hosokawa, former Prime Minister of Japan, Boao Forum for Asia was formally inaugurated in February 2001.
The founding of BFA was driven by the People's Republic of China and founded by 26 Australasian states on 27 February 2001. The organisation held its first meeting from April 12-13, 2002. It has its fixed address in Bo'ao, Hainan, China, although the Secretariat is based in Beijing.
The BFA holds a high-level annual forum for government, business, experts, and scholars at Boao, with the focus of discussion on economics, integration, cooperation, society, and environment.In addition to its annual meeting, the BFA also sponsors other forums and meetings related to Asian issues.
