For the first time, Forbes, the world's most renowned business magazine, held a Money Summit in Switzerland. The event took place at the Park Hyatt in Zurich, with 13 speakers and more than 200 guests discussing the responsibility of money, wealth, and business in today's society and asking how profit and purpose can be reconciled. The discussions among representatives of various age groups and different backgrounds demonstrated a broad range of opinions.
On May 7, 2025, the Park Hyatt Zurich again became a stage for ideas, visions, and conversations about money. More than 200 guests were invited to the second Forbes Money Summit – an event that doesn't just ask what capital is, but above all what impact it can have. As an event partner, smzh ag was in the midst of the summit – where conversations focused on attitude, substance, and orientation in the complex world of finance. Our CIO Bekim Laski took the audience on a journey through geopolitical turmoil, market volatility and structural portfolio strategies. His message? Financial resilience doesn't start with an amount, but with a structure.
On May 13, 2026, the Forbes Money Summit will take place at the Park Hyatt Zurich under the theme "The Future of Wealth." Technological disruption, artificial intelligence, and one of the largest wealth transfers in history are rewriting the rules of the global economy. How will wealth be created, grown, and passed on in the future? The Summit brings together leading figures from business, finance, and entrepreneurship to discuss exactly these questions.
