Future-Proofing Series 2026

AI++ An Executive Immersion at Alibaba Headquarters

Guangzhou & Shanghai | May 28–30, 2026

The Global Resilience Network (GRN), in partnership with Fliggy (Alibaba Group), is convening a limited delegation of senior international executives for a strategic immersion at Alibaba’s global headquarters in Guangzhou.

 

This inaugural edition of GRN’s Future-Proofing Series focuses on artificial intelligence and digital ecosystem transformation from the Chinese perspective.

 

China is projected to exceed 200 million outbound trips annually by 2030 and remains one of the world’s fastest adopters of AI-enabled consumer and enterprise systems. Understanding this infrastructure — and its integration across payments, commerce, and travel — is increasingly critical for global leaders.

  • Direct briefings from senior leaders across Alibaba Cloud, Alipay, Fliggy, and other brands
  • Insight into AI deployment at ecosystem scale
  • First-class high-speed rail transfer Shanghai–Guangzhou
  • Private executive gala dinner
  • Optional participation in ITB China

Participation is strictly limited to 50 senior executives across travel, hospitality, retail, fintech, technology, investment, and destination sectors.

 

Program fee: £1,600–£1,900 inclusive of rail transport, accommodation, executive sessions, and gala dinner.
