GFF Malaysia 2025 brings together global leaders and innovators to shape a future where economic security, financial empowerment, and human-centred diplomacy thrive in the age of innovation.
The Global Future Forum (GFF) is a premier international platform where emerging leaders, innovators, and young professionals engage in shaping solutions to the most critical challenges of our era, from artificial intelligence and economic transformation to diplomacy and global governance.
Hosted in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, in 2025, GFF convenes future-focused youth, distinguished experts, policymakers, and industry leaders for an immersive programme of dialogue, knowledge exchange, collaboration, and actionable outcomes.
GFF convenes an exceptional mix of youth, professionals, entrepreneurs, and social impact leaders, offering unparalleled international exposure, hands-on policy simulations, and high-value cross-sector networking, all designed to inspire, equip, and connect the next generation of global decision-makers.
