On a yearly basis, the National Assembly of Ecuador co-organizes a magistral session dealing with international development, peace, and education with the House of Feigenblatt.

These important Magistral Sessions bring together former heads of state, scholars, business leaders, and political leaders to discuss pressing issues from an interdisciplinary perspective. 2025’s Session will focus on the challenges and opportunities brought about by Artificial Intelligence. Another purpose of the Magistral Session of the House of Feigenblatt and its related side events is to promote international commerce and tourism. The Baron of Braemar will be meeting with the presidents of several chambers of commerce and professional associations to promote heritage tourism and investment in Great Britain. South America is a dynamic region with an important commercial relationship with the United Kingdom and thus there are important opportunities for cooperation.
