Good morning! Kim Kardashian to testify in Paris robbery trial, NWSL looking to launch Division II league, and here’s the rundown of Fortune’s upcoming Most Powerful Women International Summit.
– On the agenda. Fortune’s Most Powerful Women International Summit in Riyadh is fast-approaching next month on May 20 and 21—and we’re excited to share with you some highlights from the program.
This event will convene women leading globally across business, politics, culture, and more for a mix of international business conversations and key insights into the Middle East region.
Our business conversations will cover what seems like every angle on today’s most pressing topics—trade, tech, consumer trends, the future of health, and more. H.E. Deema Al Yayha, secretary of the Digital Cooperation Organization, will talk about her work leading global technology policy. Investors from Goldman Sachs and Wisayah Investment Management Company will dive into the trends that are driving global investment through tumultuous times. We’ll talk about the future of fintech and the importance of customer experience with execs from Marriott and Unilever Arabia. Meanwhile, we’ll also hear from women deciding the future of small businesses—a key driver of the economy.
In the cultural sphere, Hattan Alsaif of the Professional Fighters League will share her view on the rise of women’s sports—a trend that can be seen around the world in sports beyond just basketball and soccer. We’ll get into the future of gaming—and ensuring women have a place in an expected $111 billion in industry growth. Rashida Jones, the former president of MSNBC, will join us to discuss the future of media.
I’m most looking forward to conversations that will provide a new perspective on a complicated moment across geopolitics and business. Stay tuned for more exciting speaker updates—including some big names still TBA!
There’s still time to join us May 20 and 21 for what is sure to be a fascinating gathering. Apply for an invitation here.
