As part of the FT Global Affairs and Business Council’s invitation-only Berlin edition, Michael Calvey joined a private executive dinner as a featured speaker, in conversation with Max Seddon, Moscow Bureau Chief of the Financial Times. The discussion centered on Calvey’s experience as one of the largest American investors in Russia and the events detailed in his memoir Odyssey Moscow.

 

Held at the historic Hotel Adlon Kempinski, the event brought together global CEOs, policy leaders, and senior advisors to explore the shifting world order, the future of U.S.–Russia relations, and the strategic recalibration facing international business leaders. Calvey’s perspective, shaped by three decades of investment in emerging markets and a high-profile legal ordeal, contributed a unique voice to this high-level geopolitical dialogue.
