Since its establishment in 1990, the Asia Society Hong Kong Center has become the community's premier forum for public discussion of regional and global affairs. The Hong Kong Center hosts approximately 100 programs each year, covering diverse subjects such as economics and business, political change and development, security and defense, environment and society, culture, and arts of Asia. Programs vary from luncheon discussions and evening events to exhibitions, tours, seminars, and conferences.

Hong Kong Center programs have featured many prominent speakers in recent years, including: Chief Executive of the Hong Kong SAR Tung Chee Hwa; former U.S. President George Bush; former U.S. Secretaries of Defense Henry Kissinger, Harold Brown, and William Perry; Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates; Nicholas Negroponte, Director of the MIT Media Lab; Chairman & CEO of Sony Corporation Nobuyuki Idei; Chairman and CEO of Infosys Technologies Narayana Murthy; India's Minister of External Affairs Jaswant Singh; U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian Affairs Stanley Roth; and Indonesian President Abdurrahman Wahid.

Membership in the Asia Society Hong Kong Center is open to all who are interested, and includes businesspeople, professionals, diplomats, academics, journalists, and others from Hong Kong and throughout Asia, North and South America, and Europe. Among the benefits to members are reciprocal privileges at other Asia Society regional centers.
