Geopolitics of Money
Digital finance is no longer neutral infrastructure—it is geopolitical terrain. This session explores how states, blocs, and platforms compete over payment rails, digital currencies, sanctions, data sovereignty, and standards. We unpack power shifts shaping CBDCs, stablecoins, and financial access in a fragmented, multipolar digital order.

Geopolitics
Tariff wars. Hybrid threats. New forms of conflict. Business doesn't happen in a vacuum anymore. This program digs into how companies actually deal with messy geopolitical reality—trade barriers, financial regulation, security risks that don't fit old playbooks. We're not here for polished keynotes and safe takes. We want the uncomfortable conversations, the real disagreements about where power and profit collide. Bring your strongest arguments.
