For 20 years I've had the privilege of assembling the brightest minds and foremost experts for this conference. As we mark the 20th year of the SIC, you'll be introduced to new features, but more importantly, you’ll walk away from SIC 2024 with clarity and a path forward.”
As we approach our 20th Strategic Investment Conference (SIC), we stand at a historic crossroads of converging cycles—economic shifts, geopolitical instability, and technological forces—reshaping markets against the backdrop of a critical US election.
It reminds me of 2008, because then we were in the middle of a crisis, and you could just tell things were changing. Today, we may not be in a crisis, at least not yet, but the stakes are just as high.
Do markets go even higher from here? When will the debt truly begin to matter? Add up the questions and you get a heavy uncertainty of "What do we do?" It’s visceral, you can feel it.
But amidst uncertainty and chaos, there is opportunity. As resilient investors, we must lean into the storm...
Join us for five insightful and thought-provoking days at this year’s SIC.
At the 20th annual SIC, our faculty of esteemed experts will share their decades of wisdom and insights into how they’re navigating these unfolding economic and political cycles.
Here’s what you get with your SIC 2024 Virtual Pass:

Do interest rates even matter to the US economy? We covered the division in access to capital between larger and smaller companies, the looming impact of government deficits, the housing market, and we ended the session with each analyst's favorite sector for investors.
John Mauldin along with Neil Howe, Peter Turchin, and George Friedman discussed important research on geopolitical, economic, and social cycles. All are expecting a period of change and potential crisis in the coming decade. Each shared his thoughts on how wealth concentration among economic elites impacts today’s society, the rise of “counter-elites,” America's ability to adapt during crises, and historical cycles of governance that change every 80 years.
A dynamic discussion on the risks, opportunities, and challenges with China, from shifts in industrial policy, supply chain disruption, and expanding industrial capabilities to the geoeconomic implications of China's tactics in global markets.
Founder of Palantir and managing partner at 8VC, venture capitalist Joe Lonsdale talked about the potential of AI, particularly in the defense sector, AI’s impact on economic productivity, and the different approaches to open source and closed source AI by major companies.
Among the most important cultural issues future generations face is how education is changing before our eyes. John Mauldin interviewed Pano Kanelos, CEO of the newly formed University of Austin, the first-of-its-kind university encouraging a wide range of ideas, challenging the prevailing “mono-think” in most higher education institutions.
Renè Aninao brought a fascinating panel together to discuss the risks of “dual-use” technology. They covered the very real risks of bad actors using sophisticated cyberattacks to generate kinetic results. As we move more and more to an electrified model of defense, energy becomes that much more important, and he believes we have precious little time until we see kinetic tests of our ability to defend our system of government.
Our favorite MD brought an expert panel together to discuss advances in the science of longevity and increasing healthy lifespan. Topics ranged from therapeutic plasma replacement and telomere research to practical lifestyle strategies you can implement today to improve lifespan.
Four real estate professionals debated the state of commercial real estate. While at the right price there is plenty of equity available making one type of asset class very attractive to investors, another sector is a bit more nuanced with its own set of challenges.
Concluding the 20th annual SIC, John and faculty come together for a reflective final panel. A sober discussion on geopolitics that could trigger a financial crisis and an end to US hegemony. While we might be coming out of an “age of plenty” to an “age of scarcity,” one faculty member pointed out the US’s long-term performance noted no viable alternatives for investors. As John Mauldin put it, this panel was “must-see SIC.”
I loved the theme and the speakers. I think I was enriched by attending. Ed did a fantastic job. I really like it that Ed’s weekly interviews are like a SIC conference continuation.
The speakers and panels provide up-to-date information regarding the economy, investments, and the geopolitical environment, which helps me with positioning my portfolio and that of my family.
It really does keep getting better! The broad scope of topics and the experience of the faculty created a far-reaching look at national and global economies, as well as a creating a template for the future. Totally amazing!
This was my 1st time... transcripts, replays, and bios are immensely helpful. So much ground was covered... SIC was incredibly well-organized and content high caliber.
I will definitely buy it again next year, even if the price goes up 50%.
I've debated over buying/attending for years... Should have made the decision to do so years ago! Was truly worth the money spent. GREAT speakers and presentations and so professionally done.
This is our fourth conference and this was by far the best. Enjoyed all the speakers and discussions.
Loved the flexibility and convenience of virtual presentations - being able to watch/review the sessions when convenient. The conference always gets me energized and looking forward to next year.
SIC is always such a great mixture of intelligent people and different perspectives. I have come to look forward to it every year!
I am still reviewing a few of the presentations/panels... Great job. Looking forward to 2024!
I was beyond impressed with the SIC. I ranked all of the speakers high. There were some I liked more than others, but to be honest, they were all excellent in very different ways.... I wouldn't have changed a thing. Absolutely amazing conference!
Excellent, everything exceeded my expectations. It’s the best because of content, organization, and speakers.
Overall, excellent, So glad it’s now virtual!!!!
Simply the best. This is my "go to" investor education experience of the year.
