New York, NY – On September 26, 2025 – As world leaders gather in Manhattan for the United Nations General Assembly, another prestigious summit will unfold just a few blocks away at the historic Metropolitan Club. The exclusive evening forum, produced and moderated by Lexye Aversa, will shine a spotlight on Alexandre Katrangi, Founder and Chairman of Licorne Holdings Gulf, widely known in international circles as the “Global Gulf Guru.”
With nearly three decades of experience navigating the complex intersections of finance, diplomacy, and cross-border investment, Katrangi has earned his reputation as a master “Deal-Curator.” His work has established collaborations and financing strategies across Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the UAE, Bahrain, and beyond—connecting sovereign wealth funds, governments, and private enterprises in ways that have reshaped the Middle East’s role in global finance.
A Night of Insight and Influence
The September 26th forum, scheduled from 6:00–9:00 PM, is far more than a networking reception. It is designed as an immersive evening of high-level dialogue, featuring:
- Exclusive Fireside Chat & Q&A with Alexandre Katrangi, offering insider “tips and tricks” from his 27 years of navigating GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council) business and investment landscapes.
- Opening Spotlight by Scott McGrath, CEO of NEXXESS Business Advisors, unveiling his proprietary Trust model to help leaders grow, protect, and secure global wealth and assets.
- Networking Reception with an open bar and curated culinary offerings, creating the perfect environment for deal-making, collaboration, and exchange of ideas.
An Intersection of Diplomacy, Business, and Legacy
The timing of the event—during UN General Assembly Week—underscores its global importance. While diplomats debate policy uptown, influential investors, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders will gather at the Metropolitan Club to focus on what Katrangi calls “practical peacebuilding through commerce.” By fostering business collaborations, he argues, nations can create stability, mutual respect, and prosperity.
Katrangi’s personal journey lends weight to his insights. Over the years, he has forged close ties with sovereign wealth funds, royal families, and governments across the Middle East, while also structuring major cross-border partnerships with Europe and North America. His ability to finesse delicate financial arrangements while respecting cultural heritage has earned him trust at the highest levels.
