"We are pleased to welcome Larry Fink to CERAWeek," said Daniel Yergin, conference chair and Vice Chairman of S&P Global. "The substantial amount of investment required to meet the world's growing energy needs and scale new technologies for the future presents numerous challenges. As leader of the world's largest asset manager, his deep knowledge and insights on the role of investment in the global energy system, and his highly attuned sense of market signals will be an important contribution to the critical dialogues taking place at this year's conference and to understanding how the energy landscape will evolve."
