Global governance faces major challenges in 2026—shaped by President Trump’s retreat from multilateralism, intensifying technological competition and rapid transformational change. This conference offers an innovative response, bringing together governance experts, innovators and decision‑makers from two increasingly interconnected fields: economics and finance, and digital technology.

The event is designed to help decision‑makers build bridges between these communities—identifying transferable lessons and practical solutions to shared global governance challenges, from reform roadblocks to global shocks and crises.

Key questions include:

• How will public and private digital currencies reshape digital‑technology governance and the economic and financial systems?

• What does artificial intelligence’s impact on the global economy mean for future governance reform?

• What opportunities and risks do emerging and developing economies face—and how can they strengthen their influence over the joint evolution of digital and economic/financial governance?

• How can tools created by the digital‑technology revolution enhance economic and financial governance?
