The Art of Bold Bets: Building Culture that Redefines What’s Possible

True innovation is driven by an "unreasonable" conviction that defies conventional logic. Join John Hoffman, the visionary architect who transformed MWC and 4YFN into the world’s most influential innovation platforms, and Augie Fabela, who at age 25 founded VEON and became the youngest-ever Chairman of an NYSE-listed company, for a conversation on the grit required to build at a global scale. In a unique parallelism of journeys, both leaders have spent decades placing high-stakes, "unpopular" bets, from Augie's restless path as a Silicon Valley founder and SWAT Chief to John's strategic expansion of the mobile ecosystem, proving that the most impactful legacies are built on the bold initiatives that lie far beyond the core business. Together, they will explore how to harness this intrapreneurial drive to create the platforms that will empower the next generation of global disruptors.
