Description
Talk & interactive session: Recent geopolitical developments shaping a new world orderHosted at: IMD, Ouchy, LausanneMonday, 2 March 2026The era of global cooperation is fracturing and reshaping. In its place, we see the rise of multipolarity and a surge in de-dollarization, as nations hedge against a crumbling status quo. At least two parallel models are emerging: a model characterized by « might takes all rights », where existing agreements are ignored by those with a power to break them and another model of «values based realism», preserving traditional values but recognizing the shift in powers.Join your fellow alumni and their partners, and make connections with other business schools’ alumni, at this special evening for a talk by and an interactive session with the inspiring and celebrated speaker Prof. Arturo Bris, PhD in Management (INSEAD). The session will be followed by an “apéro dînatoire” hosted by, and at IMD in Ouchy, Lausanne. Arturo Bris is Professor of Finance and Director of the IMD World Competitiveness Center.
