We are extremely pleased and honored to announce the Global Innovation Summit!

This invitation-only event is a gathering of hundreds of “thoughtful, iconoclastic doers” from around the world who share a common interest in practical solutions for sustainable development through global innovation. We will focus exclusively on one of the biggest development challenges of our time: how do we create innovation ecosystems worldwide? Our vision is ambitious, which is nothing less than to reshape the entire way we think about economic development and growth. The event will take place in the heart of Silicon Valley on July 16-18.

The Global Innovation Summit will be the first major event in Silicon Valley produced in collaboration with the world’s leading development institutions. Our partners include the World Bank, the OECD, the African Development Bank, the Inter-American Development Bank, and many other organizations. We expect several hundred people from emerging markets to participate, including ministers, entrepreneurs, scientists, and other innovators. Additionally, the event will feature leading companies, venture capital firms, academic institutions, NGOs, and startups from Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the OECD.
