Keynote and Masterclass: Cultural Capital as an Asset Class


1️⃣ Keynote: Cultural Capital as an Asset Class

Day One: January 16, 2026. 12:00 - 13:00.

Drawing from her work as a Global Economic Prosperity Speaker with the U.S. Department of State, Danetha Doe introduces cultural capital as a measurable and investable asset class — rooted in beauty, heritage, identity, and craftsmanship.

This keynote offers a strategic framework for understanding how legacy-oriented businesses and institutions generate durable economic value by stewarding culture as infrastructure rather than content. Participants will examine how cultural coherence, long-horizon thinking, and aesthetic intelligence contribute to resilient economic ecosystems that outperform trend-driven models.

Key Takeaways:

• How cultural capital functions as an economic asset

• Why legacy-oriented models outperform volatility-driven growth

• How beauty, heritage, and identity shape long-term prosperity
