Forbes Global CEO Conference

Now in its 11th year, the prestigious Forbes Global CEO Conference will be held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia from September 12 to 14, 2011. This annual event is attended by some 400 global CEOs, tycoons, entrepreneurs, up-and-comers, capitalists and thought leaders.

At the Crossroads

Leaders at the helm of governments and corporations are at a crossroads, confronting transformative decisions that shape the destiny of the world community. The global economy has endured the Great Recession but its recovery hangs in the balance. Policy makers must take steps to not only strengthen national economies but also adopt a multilateral approach on macroeconomic, trade and currency reforms. Companies undergoing fundamental change must adapt growth models. What choices are at hand for leaders who face divergent thinking on issues that drive global prosperity? Which routes should they take to stimulate growth, reduce debt, correct trade imbalances and manage exchange rates? Which paths would best attract investment, encourage consumption, curb excesses and keep prices stable? Which alternatives create jobs, raise productivity, increase profits and foster innovation? Which options protect the environment, sustain energy and resources and help the disadvantaged? Crossroads challenge our mastery at taking action at the decisive hour. To make the right call demands clarity, courage, instincts, analysis and the willingness to take a leap of faith. Crossroads are also a global center of networks for diverse civilizations to exchange ideas and grow commerce.

There is no better place than Malaysia, a crossroads of global trade between the East and West, to bring together global CEOs to examine how the world economy can embark on a new journey of discovery in a post-crisis world.
