Our mission
To provide access to decision makers and thought leaders to a high-level audience in Ticino. LGF will be a platform where well-known personalities can delve deeper into the challenges of our rapidly changing world, where we can discuss three main themes: Geopolitics, the world economy, and the rise of artificial intelligence.
The Context
Today, we find ourselves facing a new world disorder, with trade wars and international political upheaval. The United States is rapidly changing, and Europe is trying to adjust just as quickly. Geopolitical shocks abound. A new period of global instability and disorder may be dawning. New and emerging economies from the Global South and BRICS nations are challenging the G7 for leadership of the world economy.
The world economy and trading system are undergoing severe stress. China may emerge as the main beneficiary of Trump’s trade wars. Europe is meanwhile facing an existential crisis, a weak economy, and an
aggressive Russia on its doorstep.
Questions arising from this process are:
How can one navigate such a volatile environment?
What is the impact on financial markets and the macro economy?
Who are the main players of this process and how are they acting?
What are the best case and worst case scenarios for the near-term?
