The WHEF journey began in 2012 at Hong Kong, followed by successful annual fora in Bangkok 2013, New Delhi 2014, London 2015, and several regional fora along the way.
Today, the recession in all major economies that followed the economic boom of previous two decades, has plunged the world in a turmoil. The current institutional framework and mindsets responding with cost-cutting and resort to protectionism, are proving inadequate to these complex challenges. Such endeavours, designed for relative stability, do not work in adverse times. We need a new and creative response, which can propel creation of surplus wealth to rescue the world economy from its current crisis. WHEF’s present approach is based on the timeless wisdom in the Bhagwad Gita: Gatasunagatasums cha nanusochanti panditah or wise men neither worry about what is past nor what is passing. Which means, think in future, for the future.
The United States is the premier economic power in today's world. It is driven by a spirit of entrepreneurship and leads the world in the fields of finance and technological innovation. There are multiple opportunities for growth across the length and breadth of this vast nation.
Los Angeles (LA) is the third largest economic metropolitan area in the world. Los Angeles is a global hub for international trade, manufacturing, technology, finance, entertainment and fashion - making it an excellent venue for the World Hindu Economic Forum. WHEF2016@LosAngeles will enable Hindus from across the world to network, get first hand insights into the North & South American markets, and pursue opportunities for mutual growth.
Over 500 delegates from across five continents will, over three days, deliberate upon their opportunities and strategies in the years to come.
