World Economic Forum Opens With Record Leader Turnout as Trump Set to Attend Davos (Connecting the Dots: The World Economic Forum, The European Union, The International Monetary Fund (IMF), The American Society for Muslim Advancement, Jerome Powell, The Carlyle Group & Soros Funding, All Networking)
World
leaders head to Switzerland for high-stakes talks, as AI investment fuels optimism
but geopolitical tensions darken the mood.
The
Epoch Times
Tom Ozimek Reporter 1/19/2026|Updated: 1/19/2026
The
Swiss alpine town of Davos opened its doors to the World
Economic Forum’s 56th
annual meeting on Jan. 19, with a steady stream of business and political
leaders arriving for a week of closed-door talks and high-profile panel
sessions, set against a shifting global economic outlook and rising
geopolitical strains.
Organizers
said
this year’s meeting, running through Jan. 23 under the theme “A Spirit of
Dialogue,” is among the most senior gatherings in the forum’s history,
featuring a record roster of political leaders alongside top executives and
investors.
The
World Economic Forum (WEF) said it expected a record 400 top political leaders,
including close to 65 heads of state and government and six leaders from the
Group of Seven, as well as nearly 850 CEOs and chairs and close to 100 unicorns
and technology pioneers. U.S. President Donald Trump is slated to take part,
and organizers said the delegation from the United States will be the largest
in Davos history.
“We’re
pleased to welcome back President Trump to Davos, and he’s bringing the largest
U.S. delegation,” WEF President and CEO Borge Brende said, noting that special
envoy Steve Witkoff and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner are also planning to
participate, in addition to a large bipartisan delegation from the U.S.
Congress.
The WEF
has framed
this year’s agenda around five broad challenges: cooperating in a contested
world, unlocking new sources of growth, investing in people, deploying
innovation responsibly, and building prosperity within planetary boundaries.
Organizers have described the meeting as a platform for dialogue at a time of
rising fragmentation, increasing complexity, and rapid technological change.
“Dialogue
is not a luxury, it is a necessity,” Brende said, highlighting the forum’s
long-running argument that engagement across governments and industries is
essential even as global rivalries sharpen.
“It’s
really going to be a discussion at a very important moment. ... Geopolitics is
changing,” Mirek Dusek, a forum managing director in charge of programming,
said. “Some people think we’re in a transition. Some people think we’ve already
entered a new era. But I think it’s undeniable that you are seeing a more
competitive, more contested landscape.”
Trump’s
expected attendance at the global forum is likely to highlight that tension.
Trump’s
Participation Looms Large
The
U.S. president has repeatedly signaled that he views global trade and security
relationships through the lens of U.S. national interest, a stance that has
complicated ties with European allies even as the administration insists that
the transatlantic relationship remains strategically important.
Earlier
this month, Trump said in a post on Truth
Social that he planned to discuss new housing and affordability proposals in
his remarks at the forum.
“For a
very long time, buying and owning a home was considered the pinnacle of the
American Dream,” Trump wrote. “It was the reward for working hard, and doing
the right thing, but now, because of the Record High Inflation caused by
[former President] Joe Biden and the Democrats in Congress, that American Dream
is increasingly out of reach for far too many people, especially younger
Americans.
“I will
discuss this topic, including further Housing and Affordability proposals, and
more, at my speech in Davos in two weeks.”
In
2025, Trump used a remote
appearance to pressure OPEC to lower oil prices and to call for
interest rate cuts, while warning that companies manufacturing outside the
United States could face tariffs. Since returning to office in January 2025,
Trump has pushed for a tougher negotiating stance with major trading partners
and has openly questioned elements of Europe’s economic and regulatory model.
On
trade, Trump has repeatedly accused the European Union of treating the United States
unfairly and has backed tariffs aimed at narrowing the gap in goods flows.
“Hundreds
of billions of dollars of deficits with the EU, and nobody’s happy with it,“
Trump said at the WEF meeting in January 2025. ”And we’re going to do something
about it.
“I’m
trying to be constructive because I love Europe. I love the countries of
Europe. But the process is a very cumbersome one. And they do treat the United
States of America very, very unfairly with the [value-added tax] taxes and all
of the other taxes they impose.”
On
security, Trump has continued to press European allies to spend more on
defense, arguing that the United States bears too large a share of the NATO
burden. Last year, NATO members agreed to sharply raise military spending
targets, addressing a priority Trump has pursued since his first term.
In
recent months, Trump has renewed the push for U.S. control
of Greenland—an autonomous part of the Kingdom of Denmark—which has
added to European unease. The president has said that the Arctic territory is
strategically vital and that the United States must own it to prevent Russia or
China from gaining influence there in the future.
The
administration has also criticized free speech conditions in Europe, a theme
that became a flashpoint last year when U.S. Vice President JD Vance accused
European leaders at the Munich Security Conference of censorship and
failing to control immigration. The comments were the first in a series of
sharp critiques that unsettled Washington’s allies and widened political
friction across the Atlantic.
Despite
tensions, Trump has met multiple European leaders at the White House for
discussions on Ukraine and NATO cooperation, including French President
Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, British Prime Minister Keir
Starmer, and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. Trump has also
expressed admiration for Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and praised
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, whom he has called an example of “bold
leadership.”
Economy
in Focus
As
leaders gather in Davos, the economic backdrop is one of resilience mixed with
new vulnerabilities. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) on Jan. 19 edged up its global
growth forecasts again, saying that the world economy has adapted better than
expected to the disruptions caused by U.S. tariffs that peaked in 2025 and have
eased in recent months.
“Technology
investment, fiscal and monetary support, accommodative financial conditions,
and private sector adaptability offset trade policy shifts,” the IMF said in a note,
with the latest report
indicating that the U.S. effective tariff rate is now 18.5 percent, slightly
lower than the 18.7 percent in the IMF’s October forecast.
“Global
inflation is expected to fall, but US inflation will return to target more
gradually. Key downside risks are reevaluation of technology expectations and
escalation of geopolitical tensions.”
The IMF
forecast global growth of 3.3 percent in 2026, up by 0.2 percentage points from
its October estimate, and also raised its 2025 forecast to 3.3 percent. The
outlook for U.S. growth in 2026 has also been lifted by 0.3 percentage points
to 2.4 percent, supported by fiscal policy and lower Federal Reserve interest
rates.
IMF
chief economist Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas said
in a blog post that businesses have adjusted to higher U.S. tariff rates by
rerouting supply chains, while trade agreements have lowered some duties and
China has redirected exports to markets outside the United States.
A
central driver of the improved outlook, IMF officials said, is an investment
boom in information technology, particularly artificial intelligence
infrastructure. The fund said information technology investment as a share of
U.S. output has climbed to its highest level since 2001, lifting business
activity and producing global spillovers, especially in Asia’s technology
exports.
Gourinchas
said the AI boom also introduces risks, including the possibility that lofty
expectations for productivity and profit gains could fail to materialize,
triggering a correction in stretched market valuations and tighter financial
conditions.
“A
moderate correction in AI stock valuations with a tightening of financial
conditions—reduces global growth by 0.4 percent relative to the baseline,”
Gourinchas said. “This could have far-reaching consequences if real investment
in technology sectors declines more sharply, triggering a costly reallocation
of capital and labor.”
He said
downside risks come at a time of heightened geopolitical uncertainty, narrowed
fiscal space in many countries, and increased use of export controls on
critical inputs such as rare earths, which could interact with any potential
correction in AI-related productivity and stock price reassessments in a
negative feedback loop that could turn a market correction into a broader
growth scare.
