This year shines a spotlight on Inclusive Leadership—the power of individuals and communities to drive innovation, equity, and creative impact. True progress comes from leaders who bring diverse voices to the table, weaving together expertise and lived experience to create ecosystems that uplift entire regions. This year’s speakers and panelists embody that vision, transforming finance, technology, storytelling, and culture into platforms of empowerment that bridge divides, expand opportunity, and spark collaboration across borders.
