Philosophy

Global challenges require collaborative solutions.

In our increasingly globalized world, it’s clear that our challenges are shared, whether directly or indirectly.

Horasis was established in 2005 to address this reality and help to inspire long-term solutions to complex economic and social trends through its global visions community.

Founded and chaired by Dr. Frank-Jürgen Richter, Horasis is an independent, international think tank headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland.

At Horasis we believe that solving complex problems can’t be achieved overnight. But, by opening up pathways to discourse and engaging with policy at an international level, progressive change can be achieved over time.

For this reason we host annual and regional summits throughout the course of the year. These events bring together hundreds of leaders and decision-makers from business, governments and international organizations to engage in targeted policy dialogue in specific locations and also unpack the most pressing challenges of our time.

Horasis strives to uncover solutions that support sustainable development and expects its partners to demonstrate principled leadership that helps to deliver community-driven initiatives.

With these guiding principles, new partnerships, cooperation and knowledge exchange can be realized at Horasis community events while ensuring the benefits provide value for all.
