The world's leading event manager for business events. Klaus Schwab.
The Davos Forum is the Oscar of business events.
In terms of the status of the participants, the reputation and the quality of the organization, it has no equal.
Given that the World Economic Forum is a private event, it is essentially an ordinary paid conference.
The budget is formed from contributions from member companies (more than 1000) and directly from contributions from participants in the Forum itself.
The first time its permanent leader Klaus Schwab held this event was in 1971. About 10 years later, the Forum received worldwide recognition and they began to discuss not only local problems of protecting the European market, but also global economic issues.
It’s interesting to see how the organizers decided on the issue of visual design of the event, backdrops, and infographics. It’s funny that the trick of putting only last names on plates was already there (it’s different from our habit of writing all our middle names, academic degrees and positions).
As you can see in the photographs, the colleagues also started from the table and podium. And they ended up, as we know, with informal armchairs and even bar stools. But the large screen on which the image of the speaker was broadcast was always there. Comfortable.
We know what it has become 40 years later.
It seems to me that such a manic attitude to detail and to your logo is difficult to find.
Comparison can only be made with the quality of government events.
Its external harmony can be explained by imagining that one (1) person has been involved in this event for 40 years. Every year we patiently improve it a little while maintaining the style and overall concept.
