 | The five-day meeting's theme is "Shaping the Global Agenda: The Shifting Power Equation". "Our world is rapidly changing and power is shifting geopolitically, in business terms and even in the virtual world. It is to make sense of this world, and to tackle its complex problems and opportunities, that leaders from all walks of life will once again meet at our Annual Meeting,” said Klaus Schwab, Forum Founder and Executive Chairman. |
