Yesterday evening, the Davos 6 were chosen by the travellers on the Road to Davos. It was a difficult decision, but the group did a great job making sure that the six would go to the WEF Annual Meeting as representatives of all the participants, not just as individuals from six different countries.
You can find the names of the Davos 6 as well as short biographies here. (Photos will follow soon.)
Next week, we will be updating the blog from Davos, and also afterwards there will be memories from the Road - from the organisers and, hopefully, from the participants. The journey is far from over - it has only just started!
