Henley & Partners to host 18th annual Global Citizenship Conference in Singapore
Over 400 delegates from over 50 countries are expected to attend the 18th annual Global Citizenship Conference hosted by Henley & Partners in Singapore this month.
Slated from 27th to 29th November, the annual conference is known as the world’s largest and most significant conference on investment migration, bringing together presidents and prime ministers, other senior government ministers and officials, and leading academics, as well as top-tier private client advisors and wealth management professionals and financial and business media.
Henley & Partners group chair Dr Christian H. Kalin remarked about the timely relevance of connecting across borders as global citizens.
Kalin said: “The Great Wealth Migration, as we call it, reflects a global trend fueled by geopolitical instability, economic uncertainty, the climate crisis, and technological disruption. Wealthy individuals are increasingly recognizing that, in an interconnected world, relying solely on any one nation as a place of residence or citizenship can be a risk they are no longer willing to take. As they consider their options, however, there is a crucial opportunity to reflect on the broader implications of their decisions.”
What’s on this year’s agenda?
The 2024 conference program features sophisticated content on the dynamics shaping the mobility options of wealthy families today.
The conference will explore legal and economic developments and their implications, societal impacts relevant to global citizens, and trends in investment and wealth migration, along with regulatory and tax changes and the evolving concept of citizenship.
Delegates will have the opportunity to engage with some of the world’s finest minds and latest ideas around global citizenship and interconnectivity and discover how to harness the power of global mobility.
Notable key speakers at the conference include the Prime Minister of Grenada Dickon Mitchell, Prime Minister of Grenada, and Dr Terrance Drew, Prime Minister of St. Kitts and Nevis.
Former Maldivian President and current secretary-general of the Climate Vulnerable Forum Mohamed Nasheed will also share his insights along with senior government officials from Indonesia, Montenegro, and the South Pacific.
Legendary global investor and best-selling author Jim Rogers will likewise offer his perspective on global financial trends.
Other distinguished speakers include Dr Parag Khanna, founder and CEO of Climate Alpha; Professor Mehari Taddele Maru of the European University Institute and John Hopkins University; Irene Mia, senior fellow at the International Institute for Strategic Studies; and Balaji Srinivasan, American tech entrepreneur, investor, and author of The Network State.
