What is Meet in Davos?

A way to ask to meet someone during Davos week. You tell us who you would like to meet and what you would like to talk about. A person at Davos Access reads the request, asks the other side, and introduces you when both of you say yes.

Who can I ask to meet?

Anyone in Davos for the week: a speaker, the host of a House or a side event, an expert, someone from a country or a sector you care about. We cannot promise a yes, and we do not approach people who have asked not to be contacted.

What do you share about me?

When we ask the other side, we share your name, your organisation and what you would like to talk about. Your email or phone number is shared only after they say yes.

What happens if they say no?

We tell you, and nothing more is shared on either side. If we can think of someone else who fits, we suggest them.

When and where do we meet? Davos is packed.

Wherever suits you both. In person in Davos is best, and a coffee, a breakfast or a walk often fits between sessions. If the week is full, meet after Davos or online: the introduction still stands.

Can other people ask to meet me?

Only if you tick 'open to be asked' on the form. Even then we ask you first, every time, and nothing about you is shown publicly.

Is this a networking app?

No app and no profiles. Meet in Davos is new, and for now a person handles every request. That keeps it professional and lets us say no when a request does not fit.

Meet in Davos: Ask to Meet Someone During WEF Week

How it works

1
You ask
Who you would like to meet, what you would like to talk about, and when you are in Davos.
2
We ask them
A person reads your request and, if it fits, asks the other side, showing your name, organisation and subject.
3
Both say yes
You both get the introduction, with the days and the ways you each chose, so finding a time is easy. In person in Davos is best; after the week or online works too.

For conversations worth having

Davos brings together people from every country and sector for one week, and most of them never cross paths. Meet in Davos is for the conversation you came for: an idea, a country, a subject, a project.

Compare notes with someone working on the same problem in another country.
Learn how a country approaches a subject, from someone who works on it.
Carry on a conversation with a speaker after their session.
Meet the people behind a House or a side event you care about.
Find someone to start a project with, or to test an idea on.

Our promises

Both sides agree, every time: Nobody is introduced to anybody without saying yes first.
Nothing public: No profiles, no lists of who is in Davos. Your request goes only to the person you asked to meet.
Contact details after a yes: Until then we share your name, organisation and subject only.
Professional, and kept that way: Ideas, work, countries and subjects. We turn down sales blasts and anything else that does not fit.

Meet in Davos is new. A person reads every request, we answer as soon as we can, and we tell you honestly when we cannot find a match.

Request a meeting

Two minutes. The more you tell us about the conversation you have in mind, the easier it is for the other side to say yes.

Who would you like to meet? *

A person, a role, or someone working on a subject. For example: a minister for digital affairs, a climate investor, someone building AI for hospitals, the host of a House.

Someone specific?

A name and organisation, if you have one in mind. Optional.

What would you like to talk about? *

The idea, the question or the project. Two or three sentences are enough. This is what we show the other side when we ask.

Subjects, if any

Countries or regions

If the conversation is about a place, or you would like to meet people from one.

When could you meet?

How would you like to meet?

About you

Name *

Email *

Organisation *

Role

LinkedIn profile

It helps the other side say yes.

How should we reach you?

How did you find us? (optional)

I am open to be asked too. If someone wants to talk about the same subjects, you may ask me first. Nothing about me is shown publicly.

This is a professional request, to talk about ideas, work, a country or a subject. I agree that Davos Access shares my name, organisation and what I would like to talk about with the person I ask to meet, only to ask whether they agree. My contact details are shared only once they say yes. *
