FT/Citi Global Debates
Future Dilemmas, Challenges and Solutions
Citi and the Financial Times are bringing together thought leaders and high level strategists to debate and make sense of some of the key challenges facing the world over the next 20 to 50 years.
Each of these invitation-only dinner forums, to be held in different cities in 2012 on the occasion of Citi's 200th anniversary, will be chaired by a senior Financial Times journalist and feature expert speakers in favour and against the motion selected. The high-level audience will take part in the debate and be asked to vote on the various arguments and the motion itself. The events will all be held under the Chatham House rule.
