A week full of intensive discussions, valuable insights and practical strategies. Our participants were not only equipped with first-class knowledge, but also became part of an exclusive network.
Our Academy Director Manuel P. Nappo shares his highlights from the intensive week:
Sunday: The NZZ Academy celebrates its premiere! At the fireside chat, I have the honour of discussing the geopolitical challenges of our time with Ambassador Jacques Pitteloud.
Monday: Whether we have a bipolar or multilateral world order, one thing is certain: we can only shape the future together. Today, strategic foresight is more important than ever.
Tuesday: Technology has long since become more than just a tool – it has become a geopolitical question of power. Mastering cyber security can be used as a real competitive advantage.
Wednesday: Energy is the key to economic and geopolitical stability. But resilience does not come about by itself – it requires consistent practice: practice, practice, practice.
Thursday: In a world in upheaval, the crucial question is: Who do we trust? The old economic order is crumbling, the new one has not yet been formed.
Friday: A prosperous future is not a fixed destination – it is a dynamic process. With well-thought-out scenarios, we can actively shape it.

The NZZ Academy provided valuable insights and deep dives into geopolitical issues and megatrends. It impresses with excellent speakers and offers an outstanding basis for well-informed decision-making.
