Building Bridges in a Fractured World:
Leading Through Emerging Stakeholder Risks

Geopolitical tensions, technological disruption, and communication challenges have exposed deep fractures in our global systems while emerging stakeholder risks pose unprecedented threats to organizational trust and stability. Meeting in Amsterdam, at the heart of Europe, the conference will explore how European approaches to stakeholder capitalism, sustainability, and digital governance in particular, are shaping global business practices. Against this backdrop, communication leaders face an urgent imperative: to rebuild connections, foster understanding, and create meaningful dialogue across cultural, institutional, and technological divides while helping their organizations navigate complex new challenges.

The 2025 Page International Exchange confronts the critical questions:

• How do we transform communication strategies in an increasingly polarized world?
• What roles can technology, particularly AI, play in bridging understanding?
• How can communication executives become architects of connection rather than merely managers of message?
• What forms of leadership can the CCO provide in identifying and mitigating a new world of stakeholder and reputational risks?

Through connection and conversation, we'll explore how CCOs can help their organizations navigate emerging risks across multiple dimensions:

• Technological risks - from AI-driven job displacement to data security vulnerabilities and the manipulation of public discourse through disinformation
• Political risks - including pushback against climate action and DEI initiatives, regulatory uncertainty, and direct criticism from political actors
• Economic risks - spanning workforce concerns, inflationary pressures, and global trade tensions
• Societal risks - addressing declining institutional trust and rising stakeholder activism
• Regulatory evolution - understanding how Europe's pioneering approaches to digital rights, sustainability reporting, and stakeholder protection may influence global standards.

Together, we'll chart new pathways for CCOs to drive organizational success while strengthening the broader social fabric that enables businesses to thrive, creating lasting connections with your peers.
