Ad Asia began as a three day Asian Advertising Conference in 1958 sponsored by the Japan International Advertising Association (JIAA). The principal objective of the conference was to give Asian advertising a boost in the post war era. The conference was attended by delegates from six countries including Japan. The modest conference grew into a congress in the 1960s and was nick named Ad Asia in 1984. AdAsia2011 was being organised under the aegis of the Asian Federation of Advertising Associations (AFAA). AFAA was set up in July 1978, when representatives of advertising associations of ten Asian countries reached an unanimous decision to do so, based on the recommendations of a working committee formed at the 10th Asian Advertising Congress held in Sydney in 1976. The current members of the Federation include Advertising Associations from Bangladesh, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taipei, Thailand, United Arab Emirates and Vietnam. The last gathering was held in Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia where the host's baton was handed back to India. As a tradition, the penultimate night of the festival is dedicated to the next host and one can look forward to the Vietnamese night at this year's event.

The much awaited session of Day 3 at Ad Asia 2011 was the valedictory keynote address of Indra Nooyi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, PepsiCo, and she didnt disappoint. She started off the valedictory note by pointing out the big issues already spoken about at the conference digitalisation, emergence of asia as an economic powerhouse, and the shift to brand engagement. According to her, the solution to surviving in an uncertain world was adaptation. The future has never been made by predictors or skeptics. It has always been made by dreamers and doers and innovators who embrace uncertainty, those who seize the day to shape the future and show us the way forward, she concluded.
