Panel Discussion
Fireside Chat
Passing the Racket: Leadership, Legacy, and the Next Generation
Anil Wadhwani
Group Chief Executive
Prudential
Andre Agassi
Tennis Legend
Founder of Andre Agassi Foundation for Education
In this fireside chat, Andre Agassi will share his journey from a tennis prodigy – winning his first Grand Slam at 22 and an Olympic gold medal – to a self-described rebel whose world ranking fell to No. 141, before staging a remarkable career resurgence to win five of his eight total Grand Slam titles. Despite reaching the pinnacle of the tennis world, however, Agassi believes his true legacy is in education reform. Drawing on lessons from his athletic career and personal life, he founded the Andre Agassi Foundation for Education, which has raised over $180 million to build schools for underprivileged children in Las Vegas and beyond – redefining what it means to leave a legacy.
Guided by Anil, the conversation will bridge Agassi's personal journey with Prudential's broader mission of building purpose-driven organisations and empowering future generations. Together, they will explore how resilience, reinvention, and vision can turn personal triumph into collective opportunity, and how leaders — whether in sport or business — can create legacies that endure far beyond individual achievement.

The Experience Exchange: How Champions Forge New Ones
This panel goes beyond traditional guidance to explore the active, two-way exchange that defines modern leadership. How do seasoned pros create the conditions for rising stars to excel? Our panelists will discuss the frameworks they use to share critical learnings, sponsor emerging talent, and create inclusive cultures where experience accelerates innovation.
Aryna Sabalenka
WTA World No.1 Tennis Player
(Women's Singles)
Sabalenka's journey from a determined junior in Belarus to one of the world's top tennis players illustrates how mentorship fuels transformation. Coaches and teammates helped her harness strength into belief, yet she also learns from younger players who bring new energy and ideas. She will reflect on how champions grow alongside rising stars, ensuring both sustain success and inspire the wider sporting community.
