Javier Santiso, Acting Director of OECD Development Centre, also attended (his agenda can be found here) as did Susanne Huttner, OECD Director of Science, Technology and Industry (her agenda can be found here).
The Davos event brings together leaders from business, government, the media, academia, the arts and civil society. The 2008 meeting was entitled "The Power of Collaborative Innovation". The global challenges discussed were divided into five main themes: Business (Competing while Collaborating); Economics and Finance (Addressing Economic Insecurity); Geopolitics (Aligning Interests across Divides); Science and Technology (Exploring Nature’s New Frontiers); and Values and Society (Understanding Future Shifts).
OECD provides a wealth of analysis and data on many the issues being discussed at Davos. Links to a selection of relevant reports and other documents can be found below.
