Gautam Adani to emerge as world’s second trillionaire, with Elon Musk leading the race

According to Informa Connect Academy, Gautam Adani will become the world’s second trillionaire by 2028. Adani Group’s founder and chairman would be the first Indian trillionaire, with a net worth of $84 billion and an average yearly growth rate of 122.86%.

Elon Musk leads the ‘Billionaire to Trillionaire’ list, with a net worth of $1195 billion. Musk, the founder of Tesla, SpaceX, and the social media platform X, is expected to become the world’s first trillionaire by 2027, with a 109.88% average annual growth rate.

By 2033, another Indian is predicted to become a trillionaire: Mukesh Ambani, the country’s richest person at the moment. On the academy’s list of trillionaires, Ambani, who serves as both chairman and managing director of Reliance Industries Ltd., comes in at number 8. In nine years, with an average yearly growth rate of 28.25%, Ambani, with a net worth of $116 billion, will join the list of trillionaires.

Standing third on the list, with a net worth of $77 billion and an average yearly growth rate of 111.88%, is Jensen Huang, the CEO of the software firm Nvidia, who is predicted to become a trillionaire by 2028. Given that Huang is presently ranked 18th on Forbes’ list of the richest people in the world, this is unexpected.

Jeff Bezos, the second-richest person in the world, will likely need 12 years to reach the status of trillionaire. Standing at number twelve on the Informa Connect list is Jeff Bezos, the executive chairman of Amazon, who has a net worth of $194 billion and an average annual growth rate of 15.27%.

Mark Zuckerberg, the face of Facebook, is predicted to reach the status of trillionaire by 2030, with an average yearly growth rate of 35.76% and a net worth of $177 billion.
According to the survey, by 2025, companies such as Broadcom, Tesla, Eli Lilly, TSMC, and Berkshire Hathaway are expected to be valued at $1 trillion. The present trillion-dollar corporations include Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Alphabet, Amazon, Saudi Aramco, and Meta Platforms.

Since the first billionaire, John D. Rockefeller, emerged in 1916, the idea of a trillionaire has captured the public’s attention; yet, a lot of scholars see the accumulation of such enormous money as a societal issue. According to a survey, the richest 1% of people on the planet emit more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than the poorest 66%, which has a major impact on the current climate catastrophe.

Women on the Trillionaire List

Among the 30 billionaires expected to accumulate a trillion-dollar wealth by 2050, three women are particularly notable. Considering the historical under-representation of women in the upper echelons of wealth, their inclusion on this list is remarkable.
These women have shown remarkable financial acumen and leadership abilities, making notable advancements in their respective industries.

They are global role models for aspiring female entrepreneurs as they build their businesses.
The astonishing net worth of Eugène Schueller’s granddaughter, Francoise Bettencourt Meyers, and her family is $99.5 billion. Eugène Schueller founded L’Oreal. They possess over one-third of the massive cosmetics company L’Oreal.
Francoise is heavily involved in managing the family’s investments as chairman of the holding company. She also continues to serve on the L’Oreal board, guaranteeing her participation in the company’s strategic choices.
Francoise and her family are expected to become among the wealthiest people in the world when they hit an incredible $1 trillion in net worth by 2040, based on their current financial trajectory.
