Mensa AMG 2024 - Main Event

In 2024, after overcoming the challenges posed by the severe COVID-19 pandemic, vitality is gradually returning to various regions. We are delighted to announce that the Mensa Asia Annual Conference will be grandly held in Taiwan. Despite being a relatively young nation, Taiwan boasts a diverse cultural heritage. Beginning with the indigenous peoples of Austronesian origin, Taiwan has seamlessly integrated historical influences from both the East and the West. Among the blending of diverse ethnic groups, Taiwan has developed a unique and fascinating identity.

Just like Mensa, which welcomes members from different backgrounds and experiences, Taiwan aims to provide various perspectives within Mensa and facilitate mutual exchange to enrich life experiences. Therefore, we have chosen the theme "Fusion" as the central focus for this event, aiming to spark interesting and culturally rich dynamics.

We look forward to introducing the unique cultural journey of Taiwan to everyone. The event will feature diverse aspects such as gala dinner, ice-breaking dinner, keynote speeches, cultural tours, and workshops. We have prepared a variety of activities for everyone to enjoy. With a range of topics, we invite you to broaden your horizons. In terms of gastronomy, Taiwan's culinary scene brings together flavors from various regions, creating the renowned "Taiwanese taste." We will bring you to the night markets and tasting local snacks will also be on the agenda!

As part of the cultural experience, you will have chance to the National Palace Museum to experience wearing traditional Hanfu clothing, try the elegant art of calligraphy with a brush, and even delve into the health benefits of learning Tai Chi. We anticipate that Mensans from Taiwan and around the world will enjoy Taiwan's unique culture, perspectives, and way of life together, fostering friendship among Mensans from different countries. We eagerly await a more diverse and interactive exchange.
