Jim Rogers is an American businessman and financial commentator based in Singapore. He was the co-founder Soros Fund Management and The Quantum Fund, in the 1970s which made a 4200% return over ten years at a time when the S&P gained only 47%. Jim decided to 'retire' at the age of 37, but remained very active as a private investor and adventurer. Rogers is also the creator of the Rogers International Commodity Index (RICI) and is now the Chairman of Beeland Interests, Inc. and Rogers Holdings.

From 1990-92, Jim set out to fulfil a lifelong dream: motorcycling 100,000 miles across six continents - an achievement that landed him in the Guinness Book of World Records. In 1999, Jim embarked on a Millennium Adventure, travelling around the world for 3 years, passing through 116 countries and covering more than 245,000 kilometres - setting yet another Guinness World Record in the process. His adventures were not just travel per se but journeys to learn about the world's developing countries and investment markets first-hand; as a private investor he constantly analysed countries through which he travelled for investment ideas, striving to get to the heart of what drives successful nations and economies.

Jim is the author of six books: Investment Biker (1994); Adventure Capitalist (2003); Hot Commodities (2005); A Bull in China (2007), A Gift to My Children (2009) and Street Smarts: Adventures on the Road and in the Markets (2013). He has been frequently featured in Time, The Washington Post, The New York Times, Barron's, Forbes, Fortune, The Wall Street Journal, The Financial Times, and many media outlets worldwide. He was moderator of WCBS's "The Dreyfus Roundtable" and FNN's "The Profit Motive with Jim Rogers".

Jim delivers captivating keynote speeches at large business and investment conferences - his presentations are full of both hilarious stories and gems of wisdom.

Jim graduated from Yale University and studied Philosophy, Politics and Economics at Oxford University.
