Set against the historic backdrop of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences in Vatican City, the World Changers Summit brought together global leaders, innovators, and changemakers for a day focused on purpose-driven leadership.
During the summit, Dustin Plantholt had the honor of interviewing Joe Foster, founder of Reebok, in a conversation centered on a powerful idea: truly successful entrepreneurs do more than build companies—they help shape the direction of society itself.
The discussion explored how resilience, long-term thinking, and responsibility can elevate business from profit-driven enterprise to a force for global impact.
Joining the conversation were distinguished leaders including Peter Turkson, Chancellor of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, Mons. Jean-Marie Gervais, and Sir Professor Gabriele Andreoli, founder of the World Changers Summit. Their presence underscored the summit’s unique intersection of faith, policy, academia, and entrepreneurship.
The day served as a reminder that leadership—when anchored in purpose—has the power to move industries and nations alike.
