Miami once again positioned itself this week as one of the major centers of economic and diplomatic convergence in the Western Hemisphere following the 31st Edition Global Family Office Investment Summit, an international platform for investment and global leadership that brought together more than 300 investors, family offices, sovereign wealth funds, entrepreneurs, government leaders, and strategic figures from the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.
The event, held from May 5 to May 7, 2026, at the Trump International Beach Resort in Sunny Isles, Miami, also marked the tenth anniversary of one of the worlds most influential private investment summit series, consolidating its status as a high-level platform for fostering international partnerships, financial innovation, business cooperation, and global sustainability.
Under the theme Connecting Minds & Creating the Future, the summit addressed strategic topics of global impact such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, digital assets, fintech, advanced healthcare, real estate, venture capital, private equity, energy transition, medical innovation, and sustainable investment models.
One of the standout figures during this edition was Ambassador, Dr., and PhD Luis Surez, President of Suro Global Corp, who participated as a special honorary guest and was recognized as one of the leading figures in promoting international relations, economic cooperation, environmental sustainability, and the attraction of strategic investments for Latin America and other emerging markets. He received the events highest distinction: the GRAND AMBASSADOR AWARD.
Various participants highlighted Luis Surezs role as a bridge between international business, diplomatic, and financial stakeholders, particularly in initiatives related to sustainable development, the expansion of investment opportunities, and the strengthening of long-term multilateral partnerships.
Surezs presence also reflected the growing importance of Latin America within the new global dynamics of private capital, strategic infrastructure, technological innovation, and international cooperation promoted through platforms such as the Global Family Office Investment Summit.
Sources close to the event also emphasized the close personal and strategic relationship between Luis Surez and Anthony Ritossa, founder, developer, and chairman of the Global Family Office Investment Summits, widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in the global family office and international private capital ecosystem.
During the summit, a special recognition was presented to Anthony Ritossa for his visionary leadership and for successfully building over the past decade an international platform capable of connecting business leaders, investor families, institutional funds, and government representatives from different regions of the world.
The Miami edition also represented the continuation of a global circuit of strategic gatherings previously held in cities such as Dubai, Cannes, Bahrain, and other major international financial centers, strengthening a worldwide network focused on economic cooperation, innovation, and multisector development.
Notably, the previous edition held in Dubai reinforced the positioning of the Middle East as one of the new engines of global capital and international investment, while Miami now emerges as the principal strategic bridge between the United States, Latin America, and global markets.
The summit featured the participation of business leaders, institutional investors, representatives of royal family offices, investment funds, technology entrepreneurs, experts in artificial intelligence, advanced healthcare, and sustainability, as well as international personalities from the United States, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom, Canada, Colombia, India, Switzerland, and other strategic regions.
Among the participating figures were representatives from the Bahrain Economic Development Board, experts associated with Blue Origin, international investors, sovereign wealth fund leaders, technology entrepreneurs, and global leaders from the innovation, private capital, and digital transformation ecosystem.
The agenda also placed strong emphasis on the need to build new models of international cooperation focused on sustainability, social impact, responsible investment, and economic integration between regions. Panels on artificial intelligence, advanced healthcare, longevity, infrastructure, future mobility, and strategic philanthropy shaped much of the high-level discussions.
International analysts consider this type of gathering to represent a new architecture of global economic diplomacy, where the relationship between private capital, technological innovation, sustainability, and international cooperation is redefining the future of investment and regional development.
In this context, the participation of international leaders and promoters such as Ambassador Dr. Luis Surez gains increasing relevance within efforts to connect Latin America with new global flows of investment, infrastructure, sustainability, and economic transformation.
With this historic edition in Miami, the Global Family Office Investment Summit reaffirms its position as one of the most influential private platforms within the international financial ecosystem, driving a new generation of global alliances aimed at transforming the economic and strategic future of Latin America and the world.
