Capital flows always indicate the direction of business. And Juan Verde brings a global perspective on how investment and the economy are being reshaped before the eyes of business leaders - rapidly, relentlessly, at both global and local levels.
From the Canary Islands to the White House, Verde’s journey leads to the very center of global capital and business power. As a strategic advisor at the highest levels of U.S. economic and international decision-making, with experience working alongside institutions and leaders who shape global markets, he offers first-hand insight into how the rules of the game are changing, where new competitiveness is emerging, and why resilience and sustainability are becoming the essential currency of success.
The question is simple: where does capital go next? Because those who understand this in time also understand how to position their business in the economy of the future - not to follow it, but to lead it.
