What is the top forum of the world economy?

1) The closing ceremony of the annual meeting in Davos in summer was highly praised by the participating entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs attending the annual meeting spoke highly of the meeting, and they also hoped to hear more voices from the new leaders of China at the annual meeting in Davos in summer. Peter Tollier, president of WPP Group in the UK, said at the press conference held at the World Economic Forum on the 8th that the high participation of the participants and the professionalism of the organizers made the annual meeting achieve good results. Speaking of expectations for the next meeting, I hope that this annual meeting with the theme of new champions will have more voices of new champions in China. He said that people are generally more interested in well-known enterprises and people, but it is equally important to pay attention to new names. "Like today's press conference, more representatives of new leaders should be invited to participate." Tolier said. Mauriz Levy, a member of the board of directors of the World Economic Forum and chairman of the French Publicis Group, also agreed. He said that it is difficult to surpass the annual meeting in Davos, Dalian in summer. The transportation, hotels and venues are great, but I hope more China enterprises will participate in the dialogue. It is reported that more than 500 CEOs from all over the world attended the annual meeting, of which about 25% came from China. Yang, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Lenovo Group, attended the press conference on the 8th as a representative of China entrepreneurs. He said that the environment and conference organization in Dalian are very good, not worse than that in Davos. The annual meeting will not only let China enterprises know about the world, but also let the world enterprises know about China. However, entrepreneurs believe that meetings can add more interactive links. It is a rare opportunity for so many global business leaders to get together. Meetings can be held in a more informal way, giving participants more opportunities to communicate. The World Economic Forum Summer Annual Meeting named after the first annual meeting of new champions was held in Dalian, China from 6 to 8, and the next annual meeting will be held in Tianjin, China in September 2008. (2) Fan Gang: Special treasury bonds can benefit individual investors. Comment: Teacher Fan is an elite. It is an elite theory to say that inflation "goes up despite eating"! For the grassroots, is there a more urgent consumer demand than food and rent? For a certain class: food and houses are insignificant in their consumption and can be abandoned. Mr. Fan represents these people. (3) Although the summer Davos will open in Dalian tomorrow, although many entrepreneurs such as Pan Shiyi have introduced Davos many times in their blogs, and although Davos has become a well-known symbol of globalization, for China people, Davos still has its little-known side: 1, 1970, 3 1 year-old Swiss Business School professor klaus schwab. 197110 In October, more than 400 entrepreneurs and scholars participated in the European Management Forum (the predecessor of the World Economic Forum). Since then, Schwab has gradually brought the leaders of the United States and other developed and developing countries to Davos. Every year, about 2,000 people, including politicians, entrepreneurs, economists, scientists, entertainers and journalists from nearly 100 countries, gather in Davos town to study and discuss the current situation and prospects of the world economy and seek solutions to the major challenges facing the world. 2. From 0 to No.1 in the world, Davos Forum has also experienced several turning points. A turning point was the introduction of the "China concept" against the trend. Starting from 1979, China was invited to send a delegation to the Davos Forum, which was attended by government leaders. Another turning point was in 2002, after the "9 1 1" incident, Davos once again moved the forum to new york against the trend. The Summer Davos Forum held in Dalian, China in 2007 was called a new turning point. 3. Davos is a registered non-profit foundation, but its business operation is very complete. The business model of Davos Forum is to maintain the operation of the Forum by collecting membership fees, cooperation fees of strategic partners and topic partners, and membership fees of annual meetings, regional conferences and summits. After deducting the annual operating costs, any surplus will be reinvested, or new plans or projects will be established, or existing projects will be established. For Davos, members and partner companies are its core driving forces. In recent years, the total income of the World Economic Forum has steadily increased, reaching 72.2 million Swiss francs in 2006, 66.45 million Swiss francs in 2002, 74.06 million Swiss francs in 2003, 83.34 million Swiss francs in 2004 and/kloc-0.04 million Swiss francs in 2005. Accordingly, the World Economic Forum has 262 employees from 52 countries. 4. In addition to the annual meeting, the World Economic Forum also has institutional reports such as regional summits, internal exchanges among members, and global competitiveness reports. If the core competitiveness of a forum lies in its influence, the 10 10 members of the World Economic Forum (mostly global 1000 companies) ensure that it can completely leave all its competitors behind. 5. Why do top entrepreneurs enjoy it? The answer given by Businessweek is, "Because Davos has a promise to make them happy. The fact is that money and power don't necessarily make people happy. The community is a powerful producer of happiness, which brings CEOs back. " More importantly, there is another aspect of Davos that non-members can't see, and that is industry meetings. Many entrepreneurs benefited from this industry conference. Rui Chenggang even said that there are a considerable number of industry conferences in the Davos Forum every year, which can't be found on the official agenda. This is a private meeting. What ordinary people can't see is what really attracts the CEO of big companies. When you arrive in Davos, you will find that some people can only attend formal meetings, while others are not on the formal agenda most of the time, but are busy attending the meetings of these so-called industry giants, which is the main reason why westerners call Davos a bourgeois club. 6. Davos entered China very early. From 65438 to 0980, Schwab took the initiative to contact the State Economic Commission of China, hoping to cooperate with China and "give Chinese and foreign enterprises an opportunity to get to know each other" by organizing seminars. 1 In May, when Yuan, then director of the Office of the State Economic Commission, led a delegation of the State Economic Commission to visit Europe, he met Schwab at the headquarters of the European Management Forum (the predecessor of the World Economic Forum) in Geneva, and he had a preliminary intention of cooperation. 1981June, the first "International Symposium on Enterprise Management" (predecessor of China Enterprise Summit) jointly organized by the World Economic Forum and China Enterprise Management Association (predecessor of china enterprise confederation). Davos has also been denounced as "anti-globalization". During the Davos Forum every year, there are anti-globalization demonstrations in Zurich. Ma Yun went to Davos for the first time and even saw bunkers, sandbags and machine guns. "Entrepreneurs in the hall are talking about the hope that globalization will contribute to mankind on the stage, and they are swearing at these entrepreneurs outside the door." Ma Yun wrote in an article published in The Wall Street Journal. 8. Schwab, who has a good personality, is the driving force behind Davos. Although Schwab is nearly seventy years old, he has no plans to retire. He told the western media, "I don't think it is necessary to consider the issue of successors as long as I can exercise various functions reasonably psychologically and physically."
