Bloomberg New Economy, a community of
multinational CEOs, financiers and public officials, has formed an advisory board. It will be chaired by Gina Raimondo, the former U.S. Commerce Secretary, and Mario Draghi, former
prime minister of Italy and president of the European Central Bank.
Founded in 2018, Bloomberg New Economy’s mission is to foster global collaboration and mobilize capital for the public
good.
“As the world navigates this period of geopolitical uncertainty, rapid advancements in technology, and a growing climate crisis, it’s more important than ever to find common
ground and build for global prosperity,” says Raimondo, who has also served as governor of Rhode Island.
The New Economy Forum will be held in Singapore from November 19-21.
“With so many forces at work reshaping the global economy – from shifts in trade and politics to accelerating climate change and advances in artificial intelligence – the mission
of Bloomberg New Economy is more vital than ever, and we’re excited to welcome Gina and Mario to the Advisory Board,” comments Mike Bloomberg, founder of Bloomberg LP and Bloomberg
Philanthropies and former mayor of New York City.
