The Global Arena Research Institute is proud to announce that the 2022 Next 100 Symposium will be hosted at the Centre for International Governance Innovation campus in Waterloo, Canada, with our strategic partners, the Balsillie School of International Affairs and Nordic Foresight.

The Next 100 Symposium is a unique and highly curated event where top minds in energy, defence, economics and policy meet with top minds in technology and natural science. The event is designed to be practical and instrumental, transcending the borders of individual sectors and disciplines. Previous symposia attest to its nature, innovative structure and program design. Our task is to advance a working dialogue on translating crisis-driven language into future-oriented ideas on a global scale.

CIGI is a sponsor of this event, and several CIGI experts will be speaking.

There are in-person and virtual opportunities for participation. Visit www.next100symposium.org for details.
