World Economic Forum (WEF)

Deloitte's Strategic Partnership with the WEF

For more than two decades, Deloitte has taken a leadership role in advancing the World Economic Forum’s objective of “improving the state of the world."

The World Economic Forum (WEF) has held its Annual Meeting in Davos, Switzerland each January for more than three decades. The Annual Meeting of the New Champions (AMNC), also known as Summer Davos, was established in 2007 as the foremost global gathering on science, technology and innovation, convening the next generation of fast-growing enterprises who are shaping the future of business and society, alongside leaders from major multinationals, government, media, academia and civil society.

As a Strategic Partner of the WEF, Deloitte is again this year playing a pivotal role at the AMNC, participating in a series of panel discussions, workshops and industry partnerships as well as organizing special events for WEF delegates.
