The CEO Agenda 2025 reveals that today’s chief executives are seizing an unprecedented moment of ambiguity in the global business landscape. Rather than retreating in uncertainty, CEOs are boldly leading their organizations through a new era of economic nationalism, making investment decisions in a time of elevated volatility, and adapting to accelerating technological change from artificial intelligence.
The discussion will provide a deep dive into how CEOs are navigating these challenges, managing geopolitical risks, and overcoming supply chain disruptions. This session will also explore how leaders are capturing value from AI investments and fostering workforce cultures that support agility and innovation. Together, we will examine how CEOs balance risk and opportunity to position their companies for sustained growth and competitive advantage.
Speakers to be confirmed.

In today’s volatile geopolitical environment, senior leaders are inundated with signals — forecast, risk alerts, headlines — but often lack the frameworks for making sense of them. Sir Simon Gass, Senior Adviser to SC Strategy and former Chair of the UK Joint Intelligence Committee, and Nico FitzRoy, Partner and Senior Europe Analyst at Signum Global Advisors, will explore how information is interpreted and applied at the highest levels of government and business.
This conversation will cover the UK’s evolving role within a multipolar world, the strategic tensions among the US, the EU, and China, and the ways leaders can transform complexity into clarity. Attendees will gain insights into how to apply these approaches to make informed, decisive choices in an uncertain global landscape.

Join us for the London launch of Bluebook, the new leadership memoir and strategy playbook by CEO David Craig, which charts the journey from the Thomson Corporation acquisition of Reuters to the $27bn sale of Refinitiv to the London Stock Exchange Group; a transformation fuelled by bold strategic decisions, cultural reinvention, and private equity partnership.
The evening will begin with an intimate fireside chat with David Craig, who will share the behind-the-scenes story of one of the most significant and successful corporate transformations in recent history. The discussion will explore how clarity of purpose, cultural change, and operational overhaul combined to create $7 billion in new value within three years amid a fast-moving and uncertain information environment. There will be a Q&A session providing an opportunity for attendees to dive deeper into the leadership lessons behind the story.
A networking drinks reception will follow to celebrate the launch of Bluebook; a practical blueprint for transformational leadership and essential reading for anyone who's ever led change, survived a spinout, or wondered how great businesses are built.
