Nick Clegg, former UK deputy prime minister and former president of global affairs at Meta, discusses how to lead in a new global order shaped by emerging technology.

On Wednesday, October 28 at 3:45 p.m. ET, as part of the 2026 Global Leadership Forum, the Atlantic Council’s Millennium Leadership Program will host a moderated conversation featuring Sir Nick Clegg, former deputy prime minister of the United Kingdom and former president of global affairs at Meta, on leadership in a new digital world.

With international conflict rising, technology disrupting at speed, and power structures shifting, the pressure on leaders has never been greater, and the playbook for leading well has never been less clear. Drawing on his experience at the highest levels of government and the technology industry, Clegg will explore what kind of leadership is required to meet this moment.
