Originally established in 1997 as ADPAI – Asian Directory Publishers Association Inc., – in 2013 the association transitioned to broaden its intent to incorporate the much larger and more dynamic arena of “Local Search”. Whether a member or not, a publisher, supplier or simply a visitor to our site, you will find here details about all our members and their publications, as well an overview of the Association’s activities: conferences focusing on industry growth, collaborative committees and regular news updates about our members and the sector in general.

ALSMA is established as a non-profit association composed of companies who are involved in the “Local Search” in Asia. Our focus is to establish a forum where members can meet on neutral ground to examine problems of mutual interest, facilitate the exchange of knowledge, experience, information and ideas while promoting better relationships between members through congress and enhanced communications channels.
