Dezan Shira & Associates Leaders Participate in LEA Global’s World Conference 2023

Alberto Vettoretti, Managing Partner of Dezan Shira & Associates (DSA), and a Board of Directors member for Leading Edge Alliance (LEA) Global, and Kyle Freeman, Partner and Head of the North American Client Services at DSA, participated in LEA Global’s World Conference held in Washington DC from October 25th to 27th, 2023.  

Over the course of three days, the conference delved into recurring themes that are vital in today’s business landscape. These themes included strategies for enhancing client value, the growing influence of generative AI, and leveraging technology to elevate firm value. The event featured an array of breakout sessions, insightful presentations, and engaging panel discussions throughout the day, as well as networking opportunities in the evenings. The panel discussions revolved around thought-provoking subjects, particularly focusing on the intersection of client experience and change management. 

Of significant note, the Alliance highlighted major achievements across global regions while outlining strategic priorities for the upcoming year. Vettoretti had the honor of representing DSA and other Asia Pacific members by delivering a comprehensive update on the Asia Pacific region.

Beyond their involvement at the conference, Vettoretti and Freeman used the opportunity to engage with clients and partners in the greater DC area. This engagement served to strengthen existing relationships while nurturing new connections, including a meaningful collaboration with the Vietnamese Trade Office.

Furthermore, Kyle Freeman had the privilege of attending the annual ExIm Conference the week prior to the LEA Conference. The ExIm Conference, themed “Create Locally, Export Globally,” focused on supporting U.S. businesses to compete effectively in the global marketplace. 

These engagements reinforce DSA’s dedication to staying at the forefront of industry trends, fostering international connections, and contributing to the broader business community. Stay tuned for more updates on our ongoing commitment to excellence in the field.
