About Berlin Global Dialogue

Berlin Global Dialogue unites international leaders from business, government, and academia to develop constructive solutions for the most pressing challenges of the global economy in the twenty-first century.

The annual summit convenes selected high-level participants for candid, eye-level exchanges in interactive formats that highlight diverse perspectives and facilitate cross-disciplinary collaboration.

The inaugural Berlin Global Dialogue in 2023 gathered over 500 guests from more than 60 countries, including Germany’s Chancellor Olaf Scholz, European Council President Charles Michel, and BlackRock’s CEO Larry Fink.

Under the theme “Building Common Ground”, this year’s Berlin Global Dialogue will take place from September 30 - October 2 at ESMT Berlin.
