The Duchess of York, Sarah Ferguson, recently shared a glimpse of her trip to New York City on her Instagram Stories, capturing an iconic view of the Empire State Building. Her visit, which took place during September 2024's Climate Week, was reportedly work-related, although specific details about her mission remain undisclosed. Ferguson, who has been associated with the international art gallery Hauser & Wirth since 2015, has been actively involved in various ventures and initiatives around the globe.
While the Duchess was in New York, her daughter Princess Eugenie was in Tokyo representing her father, Prince Andrew, at a networking event connected to a business deal involving Innovate Global. This company, allegedly conceived with Yang Tengbo, has drawn attention due to Tengbo's previous involvement with Prince Andrew's Pitch@Palace initiative. Tengbo, a former confidant of Prince Andrew, is currently banned from the UK, adding intrigue to the business dealings.
In addition to her New York activities, Sarah Ferguson has also been busy supporting family endeavors and global causes. She recently joined forces with Sabrina Elba to spearhead a discussion at the Global Citizen NOW Health & Climate Financing Sessions in Japan. At this event, attended by approximately 1,000 Japanese business professionals, Ferguson was seen engaging with the audience in a video published by The Telegraph. The event was reportedly organized by Innovate Global in collaboration with Startupbootcamp (SBC), a Dutch conglomerate known for funding start-ups worldwide.
The Duchess of York's family commitments remain significant as well. Her other daughter, Princess Beatrice, launched the Youth Impact Council organization, which has also garnered Ferguson's support. This highlights the Duchess's ongoing dedication to her daughters' pursuits and her broader engagement with international issues.
