World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2. Preface. The first Annual Meeting of the second decade of the 2. Members of our communities were looking out on a world full of opportunity for themselves and their networks. At the same time, when confronted with the challenges facing the world – from the stress on water, food and energy created by a ballooning global population to the complexities of the post- crisis financial environment and the new realities of the post- globalization, post- privacy, post- digitization world – there was a feeling of being overwhelmed and burned out.
Nonetheless, throughout the Meeting, optimism was the dominant force. The spirit of Davos always provides a platform for unique interaction, but this year reinforced its position as the Summit of Summits. The Annual Meeting provided an opportunity for leaders of the G2. France through 2. The presence of many European leaders reinforcing their support for the continent’s single currency (see Euro Leadership, page 1. A background of civil unrest in Tunisia and Egypt provided a poignant example of the nature of the new reality.
Events across the Middle East graphically demonstrated the complexity, rapidity and interconnectivity of the world today. Global youth is rising to the challenge of leadership in the 2. New actors are emerging and influencing global events in unanticipated ways.
All these dimensions of the new reality require first and foremost a common approach: basic values and shared norms to be turned into positive forces driving our future. It also requires a new sense of “global togetherness”. Events in the wider world as well as the discussions in Davos served to reinforce the importance of the Meeting’s theme and sub- themes, each of which is explored in depth in this report. Importantly, the discussions under these themes, the insight and conclusions that emerged from them underline the unique nature of the World Economic Forum as a truly multistakeholder institution. In these complex and fast- moving times, the world needs an institution that is able to address global challenges in an interdependent, proactive and collaborative way, acting independently, impartially and internationally, and committed to improving the state of the world. The World Economic Forum acts as a true global trustee, always beginning with the long- term global public interest in mind and at heart, not the self- interest of any single stakeholder. It is in that spirit that the Forum launched the Risk Response Network, a collaborative, networked entity designed to enable the world to prepare and respond to global risks, a new type of organization designed for the new reality.
The Risk Response Network, as with everything we do, will build on our four strategic pillars: Communities, Interaction, Insight and Impact. These provide the Forum with a rigorous and unique framework and ensure that everything we do throughout the year achieves the excellence apparent at the Annual Meeting. The impact of Davos for 2.

Co- Chairs. Paul Bulcke, Chief Executive Officer, Nestl. To keep pace with emerging challenges, “we need to see more collaboration and dialogue between different stakeholders, which is what Davos is all about,” he added. Addressing overseas investors,Medvedev said decision- makers in Russia are not immune to ordinary mistakes, but “major changes” are taking place, particularly in fighting corruption and modernizing the judiciary. We have not yet achieved outstanding results, but we have resolved to persevere. We are learning and ready to receive constructive advice, but we do not need lecturing,” he added. Downside Risk. The “new normal” for the developed economies looks bleak, according to panellists in a debate hosted by Time magazine, which included Nouriel Roubini, Professor of Economics at New York University; Sir Martin Sorrell, Chief Executive Officer of WPP; and Min Zhu, Special Adviser to the International Monetary Fund.
