This paper analyzes the young-scientists-fostering conferences, which are prepared for outstanding doctoral course students all over the world and Nobel Laureates. This paper reveals the aspects of the brain circulation at the relatively early stage of scientists’ career. The original conference was mainly planned to cultivate young scientists’ sound mind and making a peace. In the age of the brain circulation, it is spreading to other countries, and changing aims. Conferences have become governments’ strategy of attracting and nurturing higher-level global human resources in science fields. Firstly, the paper compares “Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting” in German, “Hope meeting with Nobel Laureate” in Japan and “Global Young Scientists Summit(GYSS)” in Singapore . It explains they are different from former international education policies and they have new aspects in the strategy of brain circulation. Secondly, by doing fieldwork in the GYSS, the paper reveals the scheme of the conference. The GYSS has many characteristics to works as making countries in the central position in science networks. The paper also discussed the famous characteristic of Singapore in a science strategy by analyzing the attitude towards the conference.
