It doesn’t seem two minutes since our MENA events in Riyadh, yet here I am about to announce the opening of nominations for this year’s Global RLI Awards.
In October 2024, RLI will make its debut in the ‘Magic City’, Miami, Florida with this year's Global events - RLI Connect Global, now in its eleventh year, which will continue to build those all-important relationships whilst bringing together the world of retail & leisure under one roof to connect, explore and develop business opportunities. And the nineteenth edition of the prestigious Global RLI Awards which continues to celebrate retail and leisure excellence across the globe.
Why Miami?
Miami is a burgeoning hub for innovation and industry - attracting an ever-expanding ecosystem for entrepreneurs, venture capital funds, talent and multinational corporations. Many global powerhouse financial and tech companies have relocated or opened headquarters in South Florida in recent years including Citadel, Goldman Sachs and Blackstone because of global connectivity, lifestyle, workforce talent, strong universities and proximity to Latin America, where it provides a superior infrastructure and strategic location for trade.
Miami is uniquely positioned to take on the future as it is a:
Bridge between the Americas & gateway for global markets
Epicentre of innovation, creativity & culture
Nature-based economy, rich in biodiversity
Attractive business climate & thriving start-up ecosystem
Global hub for finance, entertainment & sport
All in all, a ‘Global Business and Investment Destination’ and ‘Gateway to Latin America’, with convenient worldwide air access from Miami International Airport, as well as a global beacon for retail, leisure and entertainment brands and concepts.
