This year, the Asia Pacific Regional Finals will return to the first in-person event since the pandemic. Taking place in Singapore in August, the Indian winners will compete with students from Hong Kong, Japan, Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. This format offers these students a unique opportunity for collaborative brainstorming, exchange of ideas and insights, and engagement in constructive discussions with peers hailing from a rich tapestry of cultures from across the region.

The 2024 FedEx JA/ITC program was held virtually with four workshops attended by over 555 students from 58 schools across India as well as Thimpu Bhutan to heighten their knowledge on global trade and acquire skills to prepare a detailed market entry strategy plan. For the first time, the India National Competition was conducted in-person, challenging students to develop a sustainable product to support water conservation in urban Australia. This aligns with the FedEx approach to “reduce, replace, and revolutionize” across business activities in order to minimize environmental impacts and add value.
