FII PRIORITY Miami 2025: Shaping the Future of Global Investment and Economic Resilience
FII PRIORITY Miami 2025 convened the world’s top leaders, investors, and policymakers to tackle the pressing challenges and opportunities shaping the global economy.
Chairman of the FII Institute Executive Committee Richard Attias opened the second day of the summit with a powerful call for action: “The world faces an array of interconnected challenges—economic growth, resilience, climate change, emerging technologies, and geopolitical shifts. As investors, the question we must ask is: How can capital be directed to be a force for good, tackling these challenges with purpose?
” In her welcome address, Saudi Ambassador to the United States Princess Reema bint Bandar bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz inspired delegates to invest not only in financial growth but in humanity itself.
She underscored the importance of purpose-driven investments in building a more equitable, resilient, and sustainable world.
The summit featured high-impact discussions with global business leaders and policymakers, addressing critical themes. A distinguished panel, including Princess Reema bint Bandar bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz, President of FIFA Gianni Infantino, Co-Founder of Andreessen Horowitz Benjamin Horowitz, CEO of Franklin Templeton Jenny Johnson, Founder of Seven Seven Six Alexis Ohanian, CEO of Bridgewater Associates Nir Bar Dea and Founder and Chairman of Grupo Salinas Ricardo Salinas Pliego explored strategies for businesses and governments to mitigate risks and leverage new economic opportunities in an increasingly fragmented world.
Minister of Investment of Saudi Arabia Khalid bin Abdulaziz Al-Falih, Mayor Francis Suarez of Miami, and Founder and CEO of Citadel Kenneth C. Griffin discussed strategies for de-risking investments and identifying high-growth sectors that will drive prosperity in the coming decades.
CEO of Oracle Safra Catz provided insights into AI infrastructure, digital transformation, and the role of emerging technologies in shaping the future of industries. Her perspectives on cloud computing and its impact on various sectors resonated strongly with the audience.
Major announcements and impact initiatives were revealed on the sidelines of the summit. FII Institute launched its latest Impact Report, “Transforming Healthcare for a Health Humanity.”
The establishment of the first-ever Invest Saudi office in the U.S., strategically located in Miami, was announced by Minister Khalid Al-Falih, Ambassador Princess Reema bint Bandar, Mayor Francis Suarez, and Managing Director of MISA Americas Abdulrahman Bakir.
