THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF REASONS WHY YOUR COMPANY SHOULD BE INVESTING IN HIGH-GROWTH MARKETS; IT’S A WORLD OF OPPORTUNITY.But this is a two-way situation: for every new opportunity in a high-growth market there are new high-growth competitors. They operate not only in their home environments but are also expanding globally. Consequently, competition is escalating very quickly around the globe. In this new world of hypercompetition, how can businesses from all markets operate successfully? What strategies do companies need to adopt in order to stand out?

Building on the success of our award-winning Emerging Markets Summit, The High-Growth Markets Summit will help you and your business answer these questions and provide real insight into the best strategies and tactics for success in a new world. With The Economist’s top editors alongside over 350 business leaders, top thinkers and politicians, it is the one place where you can build a whole new world of opportunity over two days.

STRATEGIES FOR A NEW WORLD OF OPPORTUNITY
