Join us to hear David Baverez’s insights on the emerging “A-polar World”, as he explores the shifting dynamics of a world in profound transition.

2025 is developing as the year of an historical turning point.

The redefinition of the traditional pillars of the US ecosystem by the Trump administration and the resulting decoupling of China from America are reshaping the world order.

We are entering a “planet of Chaos” where “the New World struggles to be born”.

What transfers of value should we expect between geographies? Between industries and services ?

How should companies redesign the way they operate ?

David Baverez is an investor and writer. He recently published his latest book “Welcome to the war economy” (Westphalia, 2025).

Don't miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights into the interconnectedness of geopolitics and the economy.
