Allen Collinsworth is the owner of The Times of Central Asia.
His interest in the region began in the late 1990s, where he led the EastWest Institute's Eurasia Strategy Group, collaborating with regional leaders to strengthen energy cooperation and security in the early years of post-Soviet independence. Collinsworth also covered Central Asia through Corridor39, a television program he anchored, analyzing geopolitical trends and economic developments affecting Turkey and its neighboring regions.
Today, he leads Fara Group Inc., a firm specializing in international disputes, forensic investigations for financial institutions, and mitigation of foreign direct investment risk.
He also collaborates with UC Berkeley's AMENA Center, fostering innovation and entrepreneurship across Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa. Additionally, he serves on the Stimson Center's EastWest Council of Advisors, advancing Track II diplomacy initiatives.
