Convening the global business and regulatory community

An independent voice known and respected across global markets, Bloomberg is the ideal place to reach and engage with economic stakeholders, whether through policy speeches, summits, or intimate roundtable discussions.

Access to Bloomberg Media properties, including state-of-the-art television and radio studios on site, gives speakers the ability to instantly amplify their message to a national and global audience.

Global Business Forum

The Global Business Forum has become the leading public-private forum alongside the General Assembly, convening some of the most important world leaders and CEOs to address the risks and opportunities in the global economy. With global challenges such as climate change posing an immediate threat to more than 50 percent of the world’s population, and an unsure future for global trade, strong engagement across government and business is critical.

Previous topics and breakout themes have covered core challenges and opportunities facing global leaders, including; digitalisation, artificial intelligence, machine learning, the preservation of marine eco-systems, trade partnerships, migration and large-scale demographic shifts.

Attendees of the forum have included Rt Hon Theresa May MP, previous Prime Minister of the United Kingdom; Tidjane Thiam, Chief Executive Officer, Credit Suisse; Rt Hon Jacinda Ardern MP, Prime Minister of New Zealand; His Excellency Iván Duque Márquez, President of the Republic of Colombia.

Global Regulatory Forum

Hosted by Michael R. Bloomberg, the Global Regulatory Forum seeks to deliver actionable ideas by facilitating conversation between high-level Government and regulatory officials, and senior business leaders from key developed and emerging markets.

The forum consists of unique panels, keynote speeches and expert break-out workshops to facilitate an exchange of views on a broad range of policy and regulatory issues, from which outcomes are amplified by the presence of Bloomberg and external media outlets. The opportunity for bilateral meetings between attendees and participants are also a key feature of the forum.

The 2018 Global Regulatory Forum included participants such as Philip Hammond, previous UK Chancellor of the Exchequer; Nikhil Rathi, CEO of the London Stock Exchange; H.E. Dr Obaid Al Zaabi, CEO of the UAE Securities and Commodities Authority; and Andrew Bailey, Chief Executive of the Financial Conduct Authority.

New Economy Forum

Launched in 2018 by Michael R. Bloomberg, the New Economy Forum is committed to promoting the smooth transition from the old economy — one based on labor-intensive manufacturing and trade in goods — to a new one focused on industrial automation, digital services and exchanges of data. The New Economy Forum has become a unique global convening platform where businesses and governments, using facts and data, can engage in an open exchange of ideas on how to ease the global transition that is underway.

The forum’s Advisory Board includes many of the world’s most influential government and business leaders, led by former U.S. Secretary of State and National Security Advisor Dr. Henry A. Kissinger as Honorary Chair, along with former U.S. Treasury Secretary and Paulson Institute Chairman Henry M. Paulson, Jr. and Zeng Peiyan, Former Vice Premier of the State Council, PRC and Chairman of CCIEE, as co-Chairs.

The next New Economy Forum will take place in November 2019 in Beijing, China.
