On September 15 and 16, The Global Party will reach around the world - over 80 parties, in 73 cities within 40 countries, set in some of the world's most exclusive venues and unexplored alcoves. Kingston, Jamaica, will be one of the venues and recently, organisers of the event held a launch at New Kingston's Spanish Court Hotel.

The world's largest party is designed to host 100,000 of the planet's wealth builders and influencers, affording them a networking opportunity in an effort to raise funds and awareness for a collection of charities across the globe. The Global Party Jamaica will support Chain of Hope Jamaica, an organisation that gives much-needed support to the Bustamante Hospital for Children.

The chief architects behind this project are billionaire and philanthropist Lord Stanley Fink and lifestyle entrepreneur David Johnstone, both based in the United Kingdom. Fink, a former CEO at The Man Group, which he built into the world's largest hedge fund, is often referred to as the 'godfather' of the hedge fund concept and Johnstone is founder of the Key2Luxury.

Key2luxury invites

Guests to the launch received a very impressive invitation featuring the coveted Key2Luxury key ring. The Key2Luxury is the ultimate business accessory and point of access to a world unknown to many.

Leading the event in Jamaica is 25-year-old entrepreneur and green design consultant Kirk-Anthony Hamilton. Hamilton, who resided in South Beach, Florida, has been an integral part of the much anticipated 'STAR Island Bahamas' project, the world's first 100 per cent of- the-grid luxury resort island, in addition to a number of other noteworthy projects.

Hamilton is not only respon-sible for bringing this concept to Jamaica, he and partners, including sister Michele-Anne Hamilton and a number of high-profile advisers, are responsible for its execution here. The event will be hosted at Club Privilege in St Andrew.
