Rising Together

We are thrilled to share some exciting news! Thinkers50 is joining forces with our long-time friends at Business Forum Group (BFG) to create a host of new opportunities  for both our communities.

Many of you will know BFG from its fantastic events, including the Nordic Business Forum in Helsinki, the Oslo Business Forum, and the Amsterdam Business Forum. BFG’s mission, to empower leaders to change the world, is very much aligned with Thinkers50’s own purpose and values. Members of the Thinkers50 Community including Amy Edmondson, Martin Lindstrom, Adam Grant, Amy Webb, and Erin Meyer have spoken at their prestigious events, as have Barack Obama, Malala Yousafzai, Al Gore, and Ben Bernanke.

We believe that members of the Thinkers50 Community deserve the very best event experience, and we are excited to say that we will be working with BFG on making the 2025 Thinkers50 Awards Gala even better than 2023 (more on that in the coming months). And we will bring the very latest and influential  management thinking to BFG’s own fast-growing audience.

This collaboration is rooted in a shared vision of delivering exceptional value and experiences to our communities. We believe in the power of working together to create something greater than the sum of our parts. 

So, stay tuned for more updates and new opportunities! 

Wishing everyone a productive and energizing 2024,

Stuart Crainer and Des Dearlove
