DAVOS : Le Forum de l'Économie Mondiale - YouTube

In order to replace the SpeedEco ' we've decided to be more focused on what's in the news

to be more responsive to what we are frequently asked about.

However, we still do not have a name for this format

so if you have any idea do not hesitate.

You've probably already heard about the Davos forum,

the meeting at the top, for both ways

The Davos Forum or the World Economic Forum of its real name is an year meeting

At the end of January, it gathered thousands of the most influential people in the world.

In 2018 there has been 3000 participants including 1900 business leaders, 70 governors

and during a short week the participants discuss; organize business meetings

attend to conferences or ski.

Why not !

This meeting has been the place of few important events but it is also very criticized.

and each year we can ask ourselves:

What is the real influence of this type of event?

The foundation that organizes this forum tells that its mission is

to improve the world state but a presentation video tells us a little more things

At its creation in 1971 the event was called the European Symposium of Management

it was actually a conference meant to host

400 business leaders to talk about new management manners

and then also to find solutions for European companies

can catch up with the advanced American firms.

Since this event has evolved and is no longer limited to Davos

it's a format actually!

There are repeat lectures in different parts of the world

There is an economic forum for Latin America,

several on the African continent

and then others are reserved for the leaders of tomorrow.

The Davos event begins to gain importance in the 1980s

with the arrival of political figures and with them come the most memorable moments of the forum.

These events have propelled the reputation of this event of specialized conferences

to the media meeting that we know today

Then it's because the Davos forum is a symbol.

On the side of critics the meeting at the same place, at the same time elites

illustrates the will of the capitalists who wish to pass over the decisions of the states.

Davos is seen as the center of "hyper-liberalism" and "single thought",

On the side of the participants and the organizers the speech is necessarily different

We talk about magic and then change the world through exchanged ideas, best practices or corporate social responsibility

Branko Milanović, an economist specializing in the study of inequalities to him another speech while talking about guests:

At first glance it looks like a paradox but it may not be a

and especially that it can explain the many self-congratulations that take place during the Davos forum.

Research in recent psychology explains: good behavior in a context can justify

one more mediocre in another

and those who have done good recently might feel

immunized by the negative results of a bad action

a bit later.

In the end, the Davos forum may be nothing more than watching "TED Talks"

and arrange appointments by drinking champagne at the edge of a ski slope.

There are undoubtedly good intentions, interesting ideas,

but once the forum is over there is nothing!

No institution to turn ideas into action
