Poker, Risk, and Leadership at the Limassol Economic Forum 2024

The Limassol Economic Forum 2024 is back with a powerhouse lineup of speakers and business leaders ready to tackle the most pressing challenges of today’s fast-paced, unpredictable world.

On October 18th, at the luxurious Parklane Resort & Spa in Limassol, Cyprus, industry experts and visionaries will converge to explore how strategic decision-making and risk management can shape the future of businesses. With the global business landscape more volatile than ever, the ability to navigate uncertainty has never been more crucial, and this year's forum promises to deliver the insights you need to succeed.

One of the standout speakers at this year's event is Caspar Berry, a former professional poker player, Hollywood screenwriter, and renowned expert on risk-taking and decision-making. In his keynote speech, "Mastering the Unknown: Caspar Berry’s Guide to Risk and Decision-Making," Berry will dive into the parallels between poker and business, illustrating how the same strategies he used in high-stakes poker games can be applied to leadership and decision-making in the corporate world.

Berry’s unique journey from the poker tables of Las Vegas to advising global corporations has given him a profound understanding of how to embrace risk as a tool for success. Attendees will gain practical strategies on how to assess risks, make informed decisions under pressure, and leverage uncertainty to achieve extraordinary outcomes. Through real-life examples and engaging storytelling, Berry will challenge conventional thinking and inspire leaders to adopt a bold, calculated approach to decision-making.

Following Berry’s keynote, a panel discussion titled "Calculating Risks, Developing Strategies, Taking Decisions" will bring together top Cypriot business leaders to explore how they have navigated uncertainty and risk in their industries. Panelists including Vasileios Chatzikos (CEO of Siemens A.E.), Timur Turlov (CEO of FREEDOM Holding Corp), and Clea Evagorou (Partner at Deloitte Cyprus), will share personal stories and insights on how risk-taking and innovative strategies have driven their organizations forward in challenging times. Topics will include:

• Real-world leadership lessons from industry pioneers.
• Innovative thinking, data analysis, and strategic approaches to risk.
• Decision-making processes and tools that ensure long-term success even amidst uncertainty.

This session will offer invaluable perspectives on how to turn challenges into opportunities by adopting a proactive and strategic mindset. The combination of expert insights from both Berry and the Cypriot leaders will leave attendees equipped with new tools and a refreshed approach to tackling risk and making strategic business decisions.

The Limassol Economic Forum is an essential event for anyone looking to sharpen their leadership skills and enhance their ability to manage risk in an ever-changing business environment. In addition to powerful keynote speeches and panel discussions, the forum will provide unparalleled networking opportunities with top business executives, offering a unique platform to exchange ideas and form strategic partnerships.
