Enoch Kim is Executive Vice President for Corporate Strategy & Affairs and a member of the Executive Committee at The Asia Group (TAG). He oversees the firm’s strategic growth initiatives, services innovation, digital transformation strategy, and brand development to drive TAG’s expansion across the Indo-Pacific region. Over the past ten years, Enoch has worked with the firm’s C-suite to grow the business from a startup to a multinational consultancy with operations in Washington, D.C., New Delhi, Hanoi, Shanghai, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Bangkok, and other markets throughout the region.
Enoch previously led the firm’s China Practice, bringing deep project management expertise across government relations, stakeholder engagement, deal sourcing and execution, enterprise-level risk management, and strategic communications. Drawing from over a decade of demonstrated client successes – from securing regulatory approvals for foreign investment in Asia to navigating issues related to U.S. trade policy, export controls, and CFIUS – Enoch leads the firm’s efforts to drive these proven client servicing methodologies at scale.
Prior to joining The Asia Group, Enoch served in several roles at the U.S. Department of State, where he supported a number of senior U.S. government officials to advance the Obama Administration’s rebalance to Asia. In 2012, Enoch led the staffing and development of the Department of State’s East Asian and Pacific Affairs Office of Multilateral Affairs, where his work focused on regional institutions, the ASEAN connectivity agenda, and the Lower Mekong Initiative.
Enoch led the restructuring of The Asia Group’s philanthropic profile to advance an integrated model for philanthropy that leverages the firm’s expertise, networks, and resources throughout the Asia-Pacific and the United States. Today, The Asia Group Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a focus on youth education, women’s empowerment, and environmental protection.
