Davos 2011
In the spirit of tradition this year too euinside will follow the Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum in the Swiss resort Davos. As in 2010, this year too we will benefit from the new technologies in order to follow the debates remotely (on-line), and not on the spot. Although this year the question "What is the purpose of Davos"? will be as valid as last year, it is a fact that the World Economic Forum gathers together the economic and political elite which, especially against the backdrop of the global challenges, is interesting by itself.
The crisis in the euro area, the threat of currency wars, the impressive economic development in south-east Asia, the problems in the US, the emerging markets, food prices volatility, the prices of main raw materials, the fast growing population of the planet. All these are challenges which all of us will face - politicians, economists, business, citizens. This is why the opinion of the influential people is always of significance. So, follow euinside so that you could get the main news, analyses and positions in depth in the next 5 days.
