The Lugano Global Forum is an annual, invitation-only gathering in Switzerland that brings together global leaders in government, finance, business, technology, academia and media to explore the forces reshaping our world.

Designed as a private and intimate dialogue — a conversation, not a conference — the Forum convenes senior decision-makers and thought-leaders for strategic insight, independent perspective and high-level exchange.

With the support of the City of Lugano and the Università della Svizzera italiana (USI), LGF offers a unique Alpine setting for serious reflection on geopolitics, the world economy, innovation and global change.

Our mission is to foster clarity, understanding and informed leadership in an age of uncertainty.
Our community is selective.
Our conversations are meaningful.
Our ambition is global.
