rom a small group of students drawn from Southeast Asia to students from 13 countries ranging from Russia and Kyrgyz Republic to China and India, the AIT-Tiger Leong International Innovation and Leadership Camp has now emerged as a premier camp for aspiring leaders. “We had applicants from North and South America, and entry has become increasingly competitive,” says Dr. Naveed Anwar, Executive Director of AIT Solutions. AIT President Prof. Worsak Kanok-Nukulchai who had envisioned the camp as a training ground for global lead-

Twenty-seven participants who attended the third iteration of the camp came from Bangladesh, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Kyrgyz Republic, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Russia, Thailand and Viet Nam.
