The Rona Postpones Big 4 CEOs’ Swiss Alps Vacation In 2021

Aw, no trip to Davos for BoMo, T-Ry, Carmen, Kelly, Punit, Joe U., and Paulie this January.

Here are the first three graphs of the media release we received this morning from Adrian Monck, managing director of public engagement for the World Economic Forum:

I would like to share with you the news that the World Economic Forum decided this afternoon to reschedule the Annual Meeting 2021 in Davos to early next summer.

The decision was not taken easily, since the need for global leaders to come together to design a common recovery path and shape the “Great Reset” in the post-COVID-19 era is so urgent. However, the advice from experts is that we cannot do so safely in January.

During the week of 25 January, we will digitally convene high-level “Davos Dialogues” where key global leaders will share their views on the state of the world in 2021.

Dates for the summer World Economic Forum are TBD.
