Speaker

James Breiding is the author of Swiss Made – the untold story behind Switzerland’s success. Available in 7 languages, the book has become the most authoritative work on ‘Swissness’. His work can also regularly be found in publications such as The Economist, The Financial Times, Foreign Affairs, The New York Times, and The Wall Street Journal.

James has worked as an auditor and senior manager at Price Waterhouse Coopers, as a director at NM Rothschild & Sons and as a managing director at Templeton Investment. In 1999, with the support of Sir John Templeton and other investors, he founded Naissance Capital, a Swiss boutique investment firm.

More recently – inspired by his latest book Too Small to Fail – James founded the non-profit organization S8nations, headquartered in Zürich, Switzerland.

At the intersection of business, politics, and intelligence-sharing, James Breiding is passionate about the future of humanity, and the ways in which today’s knowledge – if shared thoughtfully and efficiently throughout the world – can positively impact leadership and investment outcomes for the benefit of future generations.

James is also a :

      • Fellow at Harvard’s Center for International Development.
      • Guest lecturer at Beijing, Columbia, Cambridge, ETH, Harvard, Kyoto, Princeton, and Stanford University.
      • Graduate of IMD Lausanne and Harvard Kennedy School.
      • Swiss-American dual citizen
