The Global Agenda: Powering the Future 2026

The Global Agenda: Powering the Future is an invitation-only executive event from Economist Impact, held in New York City on 11 June 2026 and focused on the future of power across geopolitics, energy and AI. It gathers around 120 C-suite leaders for a series of roundtable discussions, followed by the Global Agenda dinner at the New York Yacht Club, where roughly 40 senior attendees debate the future of power, geopolitics and AI in a UN Security Council-style hollow-square format. The closed-door design is built for candid, high-level exchange among decision-makers rather than broad attendance, so the published outputs and framing are likely to be of more use to most organisations than the room itself.
