Jose PineraAs Minister of Labor and Social Security of Chile (1978-1980), Dr. José Piñera was the architect of Chile's successful private pension system.

He has met President Putin in his dacha outside Moscow and Prime Minister Romano Prodi at Palazzo Chigi in Rome.

He has testified at the Social Security Committee of the UK House of Commons invited by its Chairman, Labor MP Frank Field, and also at the U.S. Senate Banking Committee invited by its Chairman, Republican Senator Phil Gramm.

He has helped the Solidarity government in Poland and President Fox of Mexico. He has been visited in Santiago by parliamentary delegations from many countries, among them Sweden, China, Colombia, South Africa, Slovakia and Nigeria.

He has shared the podium with Alan Greenspan and Milton Friedman.

He has addressed the U.S. Business Roundtable and shared a panel with the Labor Ministers of France and Germany at the Davos World Economic Forum.

He has been a keynote speaker at Cato Institute Conferences in Beijing, Shanghai, Moscow, St Petersburg and London, and been invited to speak at conferences sponsored by private corporations, think tanks and universities.
