The WEF is an international non-governmental organization based in Cologny, Switzerland, founded by the professor of economics Karl Schwab, which holds various discussion meetings and assemblies around the world. In addition, the entity is responsible for generating a series of research reports. In each area, it involves its members in specific initiatives.

Although the organization was created 53 years ago, it was in the late 1980s that the first Annual Assembly was held in the town of Davos, which became a must for world leaders in their various areas of specialization. While the first forum, held in 1988, focused primarily on changes in the global economy in the run-up to the fall of the Berlin Wall, over the years the areas of debate were increasingly broad, with particular emphasis on innovation and sustainability, in addition to changing political contexts.

The objective of the Economic Forum is to promote public private cooperation by generating a point of exchange between world leaders, including not only politicians and presidents of different countries and businessmen but also intellectuals, The assembly in Davos is, in short, an annual meeting where the global elite meets to discuss the world.
Every year, the most important figures on the world scene often attend Davos, as do the most influential entrepreneurs, entrepreneurs and young leaders. As the first president, this year Milei will be the great news. Also attending will his Colombian counterpart, Gustavo Petro, and several European presidents such as Emmanuel Macron of France and Pedro Sanchez of Spain. Also present, as usual, the managing director of the IMF, Kristalina Georgieva, with whom Milei will have her first meeting, as well as with Macron, the only two parallel activities of the Forum.
