Former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will be the star speaker at this year’s TFWA conference, which will take place in Cannes on 30 September.
Secretary Clinton has spent over five decades in public service as an advocate, attorney, First Lady, US Senator, US Secretary of State and presidential candidate. She will explore the ever-evolving global political landscape and the trends that are impacting the geopolitical environment in which the travel retail industry operates.
To provide insight into the future of business and travel, NASA astronaut Anousheh Ansari will also address delegates. As the first female private space explorer and CEO of XPrize Foundation, Ansari will unveil strategies for companies to embrace a mindset of exploration and bold innovation, essential for thriving in a constantly changing arena.
And to explore emerging trends and changes in consumption behaviour, delegates will hear from Sam Rad, an anthropologist, futurist, best-selling author and CEO of meta-media studio Radical Next.
TFWA President Erik Juul-Mortensen said: “TFWA has always been dedicated to providing a conference programme that features exceptional speakers that bring the most relevant and valuable perspectives to our delegates. This year’s line-up will truly reflect that commitment, and it is an honour to welcome such a distinguished individual to the stage, in this, our 40th anniversary year.”
