Blurring the Lines: Transcending Boundaries
The world is drawn on maps with lines that divide countries, cultures, people, politics, economies and ideologies. Whether physical or virtual, real or perceived, the barriers that separate people and places are widely recognized as part of our personal and professional lives. But now more than ever, those walls are crumbling. Hard lines have softened. Rigid rules have been bent. Dramatic changes in technology have altered the structure of the enterprise. Blurring the Lines: Transcending Boundaries speaks to the shifting, changing boundaries of the world in which we partner, compete, and collaborate. These changes require transformational thinking and integrated solutions. Corporate real estate professionals must examine – and exploit - the many implications of blurred lines at a time of unprecedented uncertainty. The 2017 CoreNet Global Summits will explore ways you can transcend traditional boundaries through divergence. Find out more about this event at CoreNet.

Throughout the world countries and regions need to source ways to counter dependence on traditional revenue sources. Primary, products in particular, are subject to fluctuations in supply and demand and alternatives are needed to avoid major reductions in spending plans and fiscal consolidation which can lead to a significant loss in foreign assets. These can take the form of special Zones, Parks or other Centres.
On Saturday April 1st, ICA’s CEO, Dr. Douglas van den Berghe will co-host a workshop “How can FDI be used to develop location competitiveness?”. The workshop will provide investment promotion and economic development practitioners with a detailed understanding of how FDI can contribute to competitiveness with practical policy implications.
Douglas will also moderate the key Plenary session on Sunday April 2nd, focusing on the conference theme: “Global Corporations and Governments Drivers: Enablers of FDI and Competitiveness”. The session has renowned international speakers from the public and private sector giving their insights on competitiveness of countries and will explore how policy can be used to increase the contribution of FDI to the competitiveness of a national economy.
On the last day of the AIM 2017 conference Douglas will provide a keynote speech at the Investment Incentives Session moderated by Dr. Henry Loewendahl, CEO of WavTeq.
