Global Business Forum 2019 | Bloomberg Philanthropies | 25 September 2019 | TBA, New York City

The third annual Bloomberg Global Business Forum will convene the most important global leaders from public and private sectors to discuss and address these challenges to shared prosperity, and build crucial partnerships between business and government to ensure its continued success.

The myths and mistaken assumptions feeding isolationism, protectionism and the denial of facts and science need to be challenged and disproven. More importantly, the opportunities to harness advances in technology and realize the potential of human capital offer enormous tools for sustainable growth and prosperity and need to be championed.

Through a series of insightful discussions and focused working groups, the Bloomberg Global Business Forum is an opportunity for presidents, prime ministers and CEOs to share their visions for sustainable economic development, and for the two groups to find new ways to work together toward common goals.
