This event is a quarterly, online event that focuses on finance and economics research on issues related to sustainability, climate change, corporate social responsibility, environmental protection, and social welfare and growth. In every event, we plan to invite a keynote speaker who is a world-renowned leading scholar in these areas to share his/her cutting-edge research with participants. We will also gather other 4-6 presentations from scholars in Asia and all over the world. 

This event started as the NTHU Symposium on Sustainable Finance and Economics (online) hosted by Po-Hsuan Hsu from National Tsing Hua University (NTHU) in 2022. Later, Elvira Sojli and Wing Wah Tham from the University of New South Wales (UNSW Sydney) and Hao Liang and Hong Zhang from the Singapore Management University joined the partnership to organize this event, so we changed the title of the event title to NTHU-UNSW-SMU Symposium on Sustainable Finance and Economics.

So far, we have hosted/will host the symposiums featuring the following keynote speakers (the detailed program of each event is provided in blue link):
