Miami, Oct. 8 – US President Donald Trump will be the guest of honor at the America Business Forum (ABF) on November 5 in Miami, across from the grounds of his future presidential library, along with figures such as soccer player Lionel Messi, tennis player Rafael Nadal, actor Will Smith, and FIFA President Gianni Infantino.
The organizers of the event, which originated in Uruguay and will be held in the United States for the first time with an estimated 30,000 attendees, announced this Wednesday that the president will attend the gathering, held at the Kaseya Center in downtown Miami.
“A new voice joins the global leadership scene. President Donald J. Trump will participate in the America Business Forum Miami 2025, alongside figures such as Lionel Messi, Jamie Dimon (Chairman and CEO of JPMorgan Chase), and Gianni Infantino,” ABF stated on LinkedIn.
Trump’s attendance is notable because the Kaseya Center is located directly across from Miami’s Freedom Tower, next to the land that the Florida government donated last week for the construction of the president’s official presidential library.
The forum will bring together sports and business leaders, such as Formula 1 chairman and CEO Stefano Domenicali; Citadel founder and CEO Kenneth Griffin; WeWork founder Adam Neumann; and entrepreneur Eric Schmidt, former CEO of Google.
“This November, Miami will become the meeting point for the leaders who are defining the future of business, sports, and culture,” stated the organization, which has held nine meetings since 2017.
The event reflects the political significance this South Florida city has acquired, as just last month Trump announced that the G20 summit will be held at a resort he owns in Doral, in the Miami metropolitan area, the first time the United States has hosted the event in nearly two decades.
In fact, the president of the ABF board is Miami Mayor Francis Suárez, who has also been one of the main driving forces behind holding the G20 summit and Trump’s presidential library in the city.
