FII PRIORITY is a program powered by FII Institute, consisting of summits, initiatives, and resolutions anchored by the institute’s FII PRIORITY Compass, focused on humanity’s priorities, concerns, and hopes. The summit is designed to deliver impactful change by transforming ideas into tangible solutions. 

In the words of Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, ”We all want to make the world capable of welcoming all its inhabitants with dignity - and not just a privileged minority.” 

The theme, “Invest in Dignity,” underscores the importance of investment into climate-conscious action, the most powerful novel technologies, and equitable solutions as the foundational seed, from which a dignified world for all will grow. 

FII PRIORITY Rio de Janeiro will take place June 11-13, 2024 in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil.
