What Members Are Saying
Practitioners from across the Forum share how mayaNomics has shaped their thinking, networks, and investment decisions
"mayaNomics gave us the analytical language to articulate what we were already sensing in the market — that geopolitical friction is now the primary variable in cross-border deal structuring. The IVOA framework alone has changed how our committee evaluates every new allocation."
"The working committees are where the real intellectual work happens. I have co-authored two policy briefs with practitioners I would never have encountered in a traditional conference setting. The Forum's structure forces genuine collaboration rather than passive attendance."
"As a researcher, the Body of Knowledge is invaluable. The depth of practitioner-authored content on Indo-Pacific trade corridors and digital economy governance is simply not available anywhere else. My nine published briefs have been cited in three government policy consultations."
"The Investment Club initiative opened a door I did not know existed. We formed a compliant cross-border club with members from four countries in under three months. The Forum's legal templates and IVOA screening tools made what seemed impossibly complex entirely manageable."
"The Forum's network gave our infrastructure projects access to sovereign co-investors we could not have reached through conventional channels. The Smart Treaty Blueprint library alone saved us months of legal structuring on our last PPP transaction in Peru."
"What distinguishes mayaNomics is the calibre of the Governing Council. These are not observers — they are principals with real mandates and real capital. The Policy & Governance Committee has produced frameworks that are now referenced in multilateral negotiation rooms."
