00:00
Around 3,000 participants from around 130 countries are gathering here in Davos for
00:07
the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2025.
00:11
Among those attending, over 300 governmental officials, including 60 heads of states and
00:18
governments.
00:20
Those attending plan to explore how to relaunch the economic growth, harness new technologies,
00:27
and also strengthen social and economic resilience.
00:32
We've identified five key themes that are critical here.
00:35
I think first is around reimagining growth and what we need to do, recognizing the kind
00:40
of slow growth, high debt environment we're currently in.
00:43
How do we actually break this cycle and take advantage?
00:46
I think really important here is actually to understand what drives growth.
00:51
This is, you know, we need growth that's basically resilient, that puts people first,
00:57
that's sustainable, and that this is what we need to, you know, actively think about.
01:01
It's not just growth for growth's sakes, but actually growth to actually improve people's
01:05
well-being, their lives, and a common prosperity.
01:10
According to the latest global risks report, the state-based armed conflict is the top
01:15
imminent risk for 2025, followed by extreme weather events and geoeconomic confrontation.
01:22
Yeah, one of the things that we'll be looking at is active commitments that companies and
01:27
governments make to collaborate around these specific areas.
01:31
That might be around, you know, the re-skilling revolution, around trade facilitation, around
01:36
developing industrial clusters.
01:39
And so we'll be measuring our own impact by looking at these concrete areas where people
01:44
have actively committed to investing more and contributing and working together to advance
01:49
these common areas.
