For investors, the forum offers a rare chance to interact directly with management teams. Registered investors can request in-person or virtual meetings with presenting companies. David Shapiro, Chief Executive Officer of B2i Digital, Inc., emphasized the value of face-to-face engagement: “Companies listed in the U.S. and around the world, including Zurich, Madrid, London, Singapore, Sydney and Toronto, come to New York, virtually or in person, for this special hybrid event. The management teams present live, then take your questions. Ask for the in-person or virtual meeting. I say that every time, because face to face is where you learn the most. These teams are making the effort to talk to sophisticated retail investors, not just the institutions. You should make the effort to schedule a time.”

The Global Markets Forum is significant for the Long Beach and broader investment community because it democratizes access to high-level corporate executives. By offering both in-person and virtual participation, it enables retail investors to engage with companies that might otherwise be accessible only to institutional investors. The diverse range of sectors represented—from mining to biotechnology to technology—provides insights into global economic trends and emerging opportunities. For companies, the event offers a platform to increase visibility and attract potential investors, which can lead to increased liquidity and market recognition. As financial markets become increasingly globalized, forums like this facilitate cross-border investment and collaboration, potentially driving innovation and growth in key industries. The event also underscores the importance of direct communication between companies and investors, fostering transparency and informed decision-making.
