“This partnership reflects our commitment to using the power of media, arts and communication to connect people, elevate ideas and create greater global visibility for impactful leadership and institutions.

The partnership comes ahead of the maiden edition of the Strategic Elevation Global Forum, scheduled for Thursday, September 10, 2026, at 2:30 p.m. BST. The inaugural Forum will be held 100% online, bringing together an international group of strategic contributors for a high-level exchange of ideas and perspectives.
Among the featured Strategic Contributors is Natalie Fort, Global Chair of G100 Media, Arts & Communication Wing, alongside Tonya McNeal-Weary, MBA, AMC, Founder of IBS Global Consulting, Inc., Detroit, USA; Dr. Prisca Oluoch, Director of Linkages, Partnerships and Collaborations at the Kenya School of Government; Dr. Bijou Ongmakagene, Former Presidential Candidate of the Republic of Cameroon; and Baroness Mary Goudie, Member of the House of Lords.
