Hello &
Dear Reader,
Welcome back to our 17th edition of Blacktower magazine.
As another year unfolds, we have found ourselves contemplating the greats in finance and
throughout our history and culture. These iconic individuals have inspired and shaped our
perspectives, ambitions, and even our approach to life.
Icons are not just celebrated figures; they are examples of what can be achieved by individuals
unafraid to forge their own path, embrace their unique vision, do something radical, different,
or simply better than those surrounding them.
This year’s magazine explores how these influential figures and enduring icons shape our
strategies and success in a rapidly changing world. From the realms of art and entertainment
to finance and innovation, icons motivate us to aim higher and push boundaries, even in times
of uncertainty.
But what does it mean to be iconic? How are lasting legacies built, and what can we learn from
them about pursuing our own goals towards a prosperous and innovative future? Whether it’s
through the strategic insights of industry leaders or the creative breakthroughs of artists, we
celebrate the iconic influences that continue to reshape our world.
As always, we’re grateful to our returning partners, the new contributors who have joined us in
assembling this year’s edition, and all the unique insights they bring.
With warm regards,
John Westwood
Founder & Group Chairman
