Upcoming Events
Emile Hokayem
Director of Regional Security and Senior Fellow for Middle East Security at the IISS
Conflict and competition in the Middle East: How bad can it get?
The Israel-Hamas war has shattered the relative optimism that emerged in preceding years. Reconciliation among the Middle East’s main rivals, the Abraham Accords, the Gulf states’ “prosperity first” agenda seemed to have ended a decade of intense rivalry and opened tantalizing prospects for regional cooperation. Instead, the current war has exposed the illusion that unresolved conflicts can be kept frozen and carries serious risks for regional stability.
Niall Ferguson
Historian, author, opinion writer
The World in 2024: Crisis, Conflict and Consequences (in collaboration with Intelligence Squared)
How can the West deal with the geopolitical and ideological threats posed by what Ferguson calls the axis of ill will – Russia, China and Iran? With localised wars in Ukraine and the Middle East and the threat of a crisis next year over Taiwan, are we sleepwalking towards a Third World War? And what are the likely consequences of the ongoing conflicts for the world economy?
Joseph Stiglitz
Economist and Nobel Laureate
Do free markets truly bring freedom? (in collaboration with How To Academy)
Stiglitz will reveal how unbridled capitalism reduces economic opportunities, siphons wealth from the many to the few, and impacts our legal and social freedoms – from property and intellectual rights to education to social media. In turn he will share a new vision of true human flourishing, offering an alternative to the neoliberal consensus and a powerful re-evaluation of democracy, economics, and the good society – along with a roadmap for how we can achieve it.
Duncan Clark OBE
A Tale of Two Cities: Tokyo Boom, Beijing Gloom
After three decades of deflation and stagnation, Japan is showing new signs of vigour, including price and wage hikes and a stock market hitting heights not seen since the late 1980s. Meanwhile China is experiencing a ‘Japanication’, with deflation, massive debt overhang from a real estate crisis and drops in FDI, employment and consumer sentiment not to mention trade and geo-political friction with the U.S. With an aging and shrinking population, is China headed for its own lost decades? Can Japan shake off its past and sustain its current recovery?
China Summit
M31 Capital's inaugural sustainability summit
Heralding a new era of cooperation between European and Chinese industry pioneers in the areas of renewable energy, EVs, robotics and applied AI, we will be lunching with C-suite executives from 20 of China’s most prominent companies and hearing from a panel of founders and CEOs from companies such as Baidu, Xiaomi, BYD, Horizon Robotics, BioMap, Hithium, Foxconn, Inovance and more…
Who we are
Pi Capital is a membership club that connects both people and ideas.
We act as a source of information and inspiration for our members, today’s most dynamic and engaging business leaders. Members come together for inspiration, to build connections both within and beyond their areas of work, and to gather information and insight across an ever-expanding range of topics.
What we do
Pi’s core activity is hosting events for our vibrant community.
These are intimate gatherings that enable real interaction between speakers — drawn from the highest echelons of economics, finance, science, technology, arts and culture, government, philanthropy and academia — and members. Some members also choose to participate in investments sourced by Pi.

Past speakers include Bill Gates, US Presidents Carter and Clinton, global leaders, several Nobel laureates, star academics, authors, scientists and technologists as well as renowned entrepreneurs and business visionaries. We also host cultural events and offer privileged museum access.
