Global Mobility for Real People: Careers, Visas & Passports in 2026

Borders are tightening, digital‑nomad visas are mostly marketing, and “just get an MBA abroad” is no longer a complete mobility plan. In this session we look at global mobility as part of your life and career portfolio: how degrees, skills, employers, visas and, in some cases, second citizenships fit together over the next 10 to 20 years. Drawing on current data and real cases from Europe and Asia, we will cover what is realistically available to professionals who are not billionaires, how to read countries’ migration postures, and how to choose programmes, roles and locations that keep your options open. You will leave with: - A clear framework for thinking about mobility as risk management and opportunity, not fantasy - A map of the main routes that actually move the needle for early and mid‑career professionals - Concrete questions to ask when choosing schools, employers and countries if you want real global options, not just a nicer passport stamp
