Global investment opportunities and risks in 2025

Danish philosopher Søren Kierkegaard observed that “life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.” That’s especially true for investors. How can we set up portfolios to add value in 2025, through geopolitical tensions, a new US administration, or the high concentration of technology stocks driving market performance in recent years? Even as US growth slows to cruising speed, inflation falls, and markets rise and stutter, the global economy remains in solid shape. Lower interest rates can provide some support, but can risk assets keep hitting new highs despite a host of uncertainties?
Global Chief Investment Officer Michael Strobaek will explore threats and opportunities in financial assets as the world adapts to strategic and economic change, and revolutionary technologies.

How will AI and other extreme technologies reshape our world over the next decades

We stand on the brink of artificial hyper-intelligence, a force that will far surpass our own capabilities. Alongside it, other groundbreaking technologies like nuclear fusion and radical life extension are on the horizon, promising to introduce a range of seemingly magical products.

But how will these advancements reshape our lives and economies? Will they compel us to completely rethink work and life? Will they usher in an era of unprecedented prosperity? Or could they render many of us redundant and unemployed?

We will embark on this journey of the possible with Lars Tvede, serial entrepreneur, author of 17 books, and chairman of the forecasting company Supertrends, giving us his take on the next 20 years.
