The FT hosted a series of events in Davos
The 54th Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum gathered in Davos in January 2024. The focus was on “exploring the opportunities enabled by the new technologies and their implications on decision-making and global partnership."
As in previous years, FT Live hosted a number of events alongside the meeting, gathering global leaders in policy, business and finance to share insights on the big issues being debated and how to tackle the changes generated by AI and other technologies as well as geopolitical and economic disruption.
