2018 will bring more discussion and debate on Asia & the World, Disruption and Political Risk within Australian businesses and the global economy. We will be back in March 2018 continuing this year’s theme of Risk takers. Growth makers. Wealth creators.

The Financial Review’s Editor-in-Chief Michael Stutchbury said: “The global economy appears to be on an upswing, along with global interest rates. But, just as digital disruption is reshaping Australia’s business landscape, the political world seems to be getting madder - with business too often the target. “At this year’s Summit, Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull declared a national energy crisis. So the 2018 Summit also will focus on how to fix the policy division that has undermine national competitiveness for a decade.
