According to FII, the summit offers an interactive program designed to showcase disruptive technology, connect ideas to investments, help changemakers align, and accelerate innovation for the betterment of business and society.
Running for two days at the Faena Forum, Miami Beach, FII Priority Miami 2024 will provide a platform for more than 800 global business and finance leaders, made up of CEOs, investors, academics, scientists, cultural icons, policymakers, entrepreneurs, media professionals, and members of the FII Institute.
This year’s program will explore how disruptive technologies and innovation can address humanity’s fundamental priorities and challenges.
“The world feels like an increasingly troubled place, with violent conflicts, cost of living crises, climate change, AI uncertainties, pandemic threats and other big problems,” Richard Attias, the CEO of the FII Institute, told Arab News.
“And so, it has never been more important to convene leaders from investment, business and government to address the root causes and come up with practical answers. The call for leadership and unity has never echoed more urgently.”
