Beyond Borders, Beyond Power

GPF 2025 promises to be a landmark gathering, one that transcends the conventional boundaries of global dialogue. More than a platform for discussion, it is a catalyst for transformative change, bringing together the world’s most influential leaders and thinkers to confront today’s most pressing challenges. Here, visionaries will shape the future of international diplomacy, craft sustainable solutions, and push for meaningful progress on a global scale. GPF 2025 isn’t bound by geography or politics — it’s about the shared ambition to create a better, more interconnected world.

This year, GPF 2025 moves beyond traditional conventions. It reimagines what global leadership can look like by fostering dialogue and collaboration that isn’t just about power — it’s about shared vision, inclusive growth, and meaningful action. The forum places a unique focus on shaping global strategies that aren’t confined by borders but are driven by the shared goal of collective progress.

The Global Power Forum is not a forum for simply discussing power dynamics; it is about elevating voices from all corners of the world, ensuring that all leaders have a seat at the table. The power of GPF lies in its inclusivity — it amplifies perspectives that are often marginalized and shifts the global conversation towards shared humanity, not just geopolitical influence.

“No One Succeeds Alone: Harnessing Networks for Africa’s Future” 🌍

In her powerful reflections, Rindra Hasimbelo Rabarinirinarison, Minister of Economy and Finance of Madagascar, reminded us that “everybody succeeds in network.” She underscored the importance of platforms like ALM’s gatherings — spaces where Africa can convene, connect, and strengthen its collective agenda. For her, networking is not just about meeting people — it is about aligning visions, pooling strength, and using Africa’s collective force to drive progress.

It is this same spirit that animates the Global Power Forum (GPF) 2025 in New York — an inclusive stage bringing together Heads of State, First Ladies, policymakers, industry leaders, development partners, and innovators. GPF is more than a convening: it is a catalytic hub for collaboration, dialogue, and co-creation on the most pressing issues of our time — from climate justice and debt relief to women’s leadership, Afro-Caribbean partnerships, and global equity.

Through these high-level engagements, the Forum seeks to:

Leverage International Convenings & B2G Engagements — forging stronger South-South and South-North partnerships.

Amplify Women’s Leadership — celebrating and elevating women at the forefront of politics, diplomacy, business, and innovation.

Strengthen Afro-Caribbean Ties — advancing shared prosperity in trade, investment, cultural exchange, and climate resilience.

Create a Shared Platform — uniting women leaders and African-Caribbean states people for stronger global influence.

Drive Global Partnerships — attracting development finance, philanthropic support, and private sector commitments.

At its core, GPF is about turning networks into power, and power into progress. Just as Minister Rabarinirinarison affirmed, no one succeeds alone — but together, the Global South can chart a new era of shared prosperity and inclusive growth.

🌍✨ Unlocking Abundance: Ruthe Farmer on Tech Inclusion & Women’s Empowerment ✨🌍

At the Global Power Women Conference 2024 hosted at The City University of New York, Ruthe Farmer, Founder & CEO of Last Mile Education Fund and Tech Inclusion Advocate, responded powerfully to the question on strategies that drive gender equity and diversity in technology education.

She emphasized that her work has always been grounded in the idea of abundance—the belief that talent and potential are everywhere, but the systems designed to nurture them are not. She challenged stereotypes around girls’ interest in technology, pointing out that the problem is not a lack of interest but a lack of approaches that genuinely resonate with them.

Reflecting on her pioneering work through initiatives like Aspirations in Computing (launched in 2007) and TECHNOLOchicas, Farmer described how she built networks to connect the few girls in each school raising their hands to pursue technology into strong communities and cohorts. That movement has since grown into a vibrant network of 35,000 young women who are solving real-world problems—from AI-driven healthcare solutions in Rwanda to innovative apps shaping global industries. Her message was clear: women are not working on trivial problems; they are creating transformative solutions for humanity.

The power of Ruthe Farmer’s story highlights the importance of building systems, networks, and opportunities that amplify women’s voices and potential in technology and entrepreneurship. Her vision of inclusion and resilience sets the stage for the next global conversation.

At the Global Power Forum (GPF) 2025 in New York, the first panel of the Global Power Women Conference (GPWC) will spotlight Enterprise & Global Trade for Women Entrepreneurs / Digital Empowerment & Tech-Driven Inclusion.

With the thematic focus:
✨ SheTrades: Unlocking Cross-Border Capital for Women-Owned Enterprises
✨ Digital Bridges to Power: Apps, AI, and the Next Generation of Women Leaders

This transformative session will explore how women entrepreneurs are leveraging technology to scale their enterprises, bridge access gaps, and reimagine cross-border trade.

Panelists:

The Hon. Reta Jo Lewis, Co-Chair GPWN, Immediate Past Chair, Export-Import Bank of the United States

“Women at the Center of Power, Driving Africa’s Transformation” – H.E. Nomvula Paula Mokonyane at GPWC 2025, New York

At the Global Power Women Conference (GPWC) 2025, held at the City University of New York, H.E. Nomvula Mokonyane Paula, First Deputy Secretary-General of the African National Congress, South Africa, reaffirmed the indispensable role of women in shaping Africa’s future.

She highlighted how women leaders, entrepreneurs, and changemakers are not only breaking barriers but also steering communities and nations toward shared prosperity.

Her reflections reminded the audience that the empowerment of women is not an option, but a necessity for Africa’s transformation. From driving inclusive policies to anchoring peacebuilding and economic development, she emphasized that women stand at the heart of the continent’s progress — and that global platforms like GPWC must amplify their voices on the world stage.

At GPF 2025, Presidents, Prime Ministers, Ministers, First Ladies, policymakers, business moguls, industry leaders, and global influencers will gather to shape strategies on governance, economic resilience, women’s empowerment, youth inclusion, trade, investment, and global partnerships.

🌍 Global Power Forum (GPF) 2025: Rethinking Africa’s Priorities, Shaping Our Shared Future 🌍

“Rethinking Africa’s priorities means breaking away from tired models and building inclusive governance, resilient institutions, and people-centered policies. The future we want must empower our youth, uphold dignity, and place peace and security at the very heart of development.”
— H.E. Ernest Bai Koroma, Former President of Sierra Leone (Office of Ernest Bai Koroma, Former President of Sierra Leone 2007-2018)

These powerful words embody the vision of the Global Power Forum (GPF) 2025 — a premier platform where Heads of State, Presidents, Prime Ministers, Ministers, and First Ladies will converge with industry leaders, policymakers, investors, and the global diaspora to design pathways for Africa, the Caribbean, and beyond.

At GPF 2025, collaboration takes center stage. It is a place where nations align their priorities, where leaders network and share ideas, and where opportunities for economic growth, trade, and investment are unlocked. Beyond speeches and discussions, GPF is where strategic partnerships are forged, and where bold visions are translated into actionable strategies.

For Heads of State and government leaders, it is a chance to engage directly with peers and global partners. For Ministers, it is an opportunity to negotiate solutions that strengthen national economies. For First Ladies, it is a platform to drive social progress, inclusivity, and youth empowerment. And for all, it is a stage to reshape narratives, champion dignity, and affirm leadership in a rapidly changing world.
