About the Event

We live in an era of unprecedented transformations and advancements: the Exponential Era. The discussion revolves around debt, inflation, inequality, sustainability, and geopolitical rivalries, while artificial intelligence redefines the economy and society. We pose the fundamental question: How do these challenges impact us? Join us in Cartagena, where thought leaders will share their valuable insights and experiences. Together, let’s seek solutions to confront and thrive amidst these challenges.
