CEO CONFERENCE - Shaping the Future

Winning the UNCERTAIN

The economic outlook has never been more uncertain. Energy prices, inflation, supply chains disruptions, and recently the geopolitical risk, completed by the long-term challenges like the ESG agenda, and continued digitalization, and it’s clear that predicting what’s next and what this means for CEOs is no easy feat.

How can CEOs build on this unique moment?

CEO Conference is an authentic knowledge and experience sharing platform to discuss business evolutions, ideas, solutions, innovations, and technologies to shape the world of CEOs in the following months of unprecedented challenges.

We are challenging experienced CEOs, investors, decision-makers, future CEOs, great business thinkers, innovators, consultants, and futurists, both local and worldwide, to share insights, experiences, and real case business practices.

CONTEXT

The biggest concern is now UNCERTAINTY – rooted in the pessimistic economic outlook generated by the multiple overlapping crises, war, trade conflicts, cyberthreats, talent scarcity and increased regulation tackling climate change, the need to adapt to market realities, and the fast-changing business environment.

Which are the proven solutions that can work? Where to look first? How to maintain control over the evolution of their business?

CEOs have now the challenge to reimagine and reset their strategies to adapt their business to a permanently changing environment.

They have zero time to lose!
