About Us
The journey of The New Silk Road Forum began in 2017, when a small group of global equity hedge fund managers met in Almaty, Kazakhstan, a symbolic meeting point along the ancient Silk Road. What started as a private exchange of ideas quickly grew into a global community of investors, entrepreneurs, and visionaries who wanted to connect beyond borders.
Since then, the Forum has expanded across continents, hosting events in London, Jakarta, Hong Kong, Baku, New York, and Jackson Hole. Each location reflects our belief that place shapes perspective, and that, like the original Silk Road, the exchange of ideas thrives on diversity, openness, and discovery.
Our Mission
