– 24 October 2025 –

It is not too late to secure your seat at the Obris table.

In less than two weeks we will convene in Mumbai – the Gateway to India. We will spend our week at the Taj Mahal Palace & Tower Hotel in Mumbai’s most historic and storied district.

This issue of the Global Investor will provide you an overview of what our group of participants will encounter and explore during the first week of November.

November is the perfect time to visit Mumbai – cooler weather, a hint of autumn and warm breezes.

If you would like to join us, click on the link below. A quick note that the Taj has extended our discounted contract rate for hotel rooms.

Grab your seat… Join us and make this your launch pad to explore and invest in India.

Three things make each Obris Meet Up unique and unforgettable.

  1. Quality people – our members come from more that 25 countries, all high-net-worth, accomplished in their careers and investing, adventurous and eager to connect with like-minded individuals. Our community is amazing, not something you will find anywhere else. Expect to learn from and feel connected to your tribe.

     

  2. Exceptional plenaries – We gather the best that India has to offer. In our first day of the Meet Up we will dig deep into what makes India tick, what makes it a great place to invest, and how to invest in the world’s fastest growing economy. On the second day, we will visit the Bombay Stock Exchange and then head out into the city for an adventure. On the third day, after exploring cutting edge investment in India, we will convene around the conference room table for participants to share their own expertise and what makes them tick. No one is required to share, but we have yet to have someone turn down the opportunity.

     

  3. Location, location, location – India is nothing short of exotic, mysterious and cultured with deep, deep history in our modern world. Obris after hours parallels our plenaries. We choose the best hotels, restaurants, night-spots and must-see sites. You will not be disappointed. That is why we chose the Taj!
