About FII 5th Edition 2021: Invest in Humanity

WORLD-LEADING SUMMIT ON THE FUTURE OF GLOBAL INVESTMENT FOR HUMANITY

In January 2021, the Future Investment Initiative Institute hosted a hybrid virtual and physical gathering of CEOs and policymakers to celebrate a neo-renaissance of the global economy. Now, as our new collective future begins to take shape, it is more important than ever for this community to organize around the central challenge of our time — how to Invest in Humanity. For many at the top of the economic pyramid, the pandemic unleashed new sources of wealth and economic growth. For others, it brought widespread social and economic challenges. Structural inequalities between rich and poor and developed and emerging economies are unsustainable. How can leaders from business and government leverage the transformations of the past year to ensure progress, prosperity, and opportunity for all? Join us to participate in shaping a prosperous, sustainable future for Humanity.

The theme “Invest in Humanity” is a continuity of the theme adopted for the 4th edition of FII, January 2021: the “Neo-Renaissance”. As the world emerges from a global pandemic, which has shaped a new normal, a new world perspective comes into focus, highlighting unsustainable structural inequalities between rich and poor and developed and emerging economies. The 5th edition of FII will address how the global community can emerge more resilient from the crisis and how coordinated efforts can contribute to a more inclusive and prosperous society.

The 5th edition of the Future Investment Initiative will be convened in person, over the course of three days, from the 26th to the 28th of October 2021, in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia).
