Geopolitics is in a bust cycle. The world’s most powerful country—the United States—and its most important relationship—U.S.-China—are beset with profound challenges. Global institutions are increasingly ineffective. The result: a growing vacuum of leadership and coordination. How does this geopolitical recession shape our ability to respond to crises like the pandemic, the Russia-Ukraine war, climate change, and disruptive technologies? How do we get out of it? And what comes after the G-Zero?
Global policy expert Ian Bremmer calls for a complete rethink of America’s role in tomorrow’s world. In an increasingly volatile international environment, the question has never been more important. Bremmer explores three choices, each with its own benefits and drawbacks:
China bestrides the world as a colossus, and business leaders can't get enough from the promised riches of Asia. But does unprecedented growth mean that your company will benefit from it? Ian Bremmer, intellectual entrepreneur and President of Eurasia Group, explains the dangers of Asian growth for global investors seeking to build a presence in international markets; for companies seeking to sell their products there; and for the global markets more broadly.
At this speech audiences will learn:
-How to read the political and economic landscape in China, India, and beyond -How geopolitics is creating greater risks—and opportunities—for investors in Asia
Oil prices are increasingly susceptible to international politics--for both the world's supply and demand. Ian Bremmer, founder and president of the world's largest political risk consultancy, shares his views on what's in store for the politics of global energy--from spiralling Chinese and Indian growth in consumption to the dangers of future oil export from the Middle East, Russia and the Caspian, and West Africa.
At this speech audiences will learn:
-Why international politics matters to oil investors, financial institutions, and consumers alike
-How to assess the real threats to oil production, and discount the headlines that don't matter
-How a shift in global relations between the US and China will affect the global energy market
A generation after communism’s collapse, the future of free market capitalism isn't what it used to be. Public wealth, public investment, and public ownership have made a stunning comeback. Certain that command economies are doomed to fail but afraid that truly free markets will spin beyond their control, the political leadership in China, Russia, the Arab monarchies of the Persian Gulf and other authoritarian states have invented a new system: state capitalism. Each in their own way, they’re using markets to create wealth that can be directed toward the achievement of political goals. Governments now dominate key domestic economic sectors. The oil companies they own control three-quarters of the world’s crude oil reserves. They use state-owned companies to manipulate entire economic sectors and industries. They own enormous investment funds that have become vitally important sources of capital for Western governments and banks weakened by financial crisis. An expert on the impact of politics on market performance, Ian Bremmer illustrates the rise of state capitalism and details its long-term threat to relations among nations and the future of the global economy.
At this presentation audiences will learn about: -The rise of state capitalism -Why it exists and how it works -The threat to free market capitalism
