Winner of the Frederic Bastiat award for journalism and chairman of companies in both India and Dubai, Rakesh Wadhwa has been invited to speak at FreedomFest, scheduled to be held on July 17-20, 2019. Mr. Wadhwa is to speak on “Open Borders?”

Being held for more than ten years in a row, FreedomFest claims to be “the biggest liberty conference of the year, where free minds meet to celebrate great books, great ideas, and great thinkers in an open-minded environment.” The theme this year is The Wild West, as the organization asks the question: “Was the Wild West a time of liberty and opportunity? Or a time of anarchy and violence? Or both?”

The event is expected to be attended by more than 2,000 participants, along with over 10,000 digital followers. FreedomFest will be an opportunity for participants to engage with more than 200 speakers and 150 exhibitors, while also meeting with thought leaders across different fields. The event will also be a place that offers participants exciting investment opportunities that can enhance their portfolios, while giving them a chance to network with leading free-market thinkers and pro-liberty leaders and organizations.

Mr. Wadhwa also holds the honor of being the only person to have been nominated six times for the Frederic Bastiat Prize for Journalism, held by the International Policy Network, the UK. In addition, he is a member of the Mont Pelerin Society, a leading global free market organization, which also has members such as Professor Milton Friedman and Dr. Robert J Barro.
