The World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in Davos provides an opportunity for leaders in business, government and civil society to collaborate and share ideas on how to best respond to global challenges.

By working together, we can help to strengthen economic resilience and improve prosperity for all.

This 55th annual meeting will focus on the opportunities created by new technologies and their implications for global decision-making. More than 100 governments, 1,000 business leaders representing the world’s largest global companies, and academic experts will be in attendance, alongside top global media outlets.

Center Initiatives

NTT DATA Group has selected to actively participate in four World Economic Forum centers that support the alignment of public and private efforts for greater impact.

  • Center for Nature and Climate

    NTT DATA Group will engage and work with the Center for Nature and Climate to help accelerate industrial decarbonization, expand regenerative agricultural practices and promote innovation in food production.

  • Center for Advanced Manufacturing and Supply Chains

    NTT DATA Group will engage with the Center for Advanced Manufacturing and Supply Chains to support industry in moving to net-zero operating models, empowering the workforce and building resilient value chains.

  • Center for Urban Transformation
