U.S. President Donald Trump is set to participate virtually in the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Davos shortly after his inauguration, as confirmed by the forum president. This decision comes after Trump's physical attendance at the prestigious event twice during his first term in office.
The forum president highlighted that Trump will engage in a live online dialogue with participants on Thursday afternoon, providing insights into the new administration's policy priorities. This virtual interaction is expected to be a significant moment during the five-day program, which commences on Monday, coinciding with Trump's inauguration.
The forum anticipates the participation of a record number of approximately 900 business leaders, including representatives from key emerging markets, in this year's annual meeting. The event serves as a platform for influential figures from the business and government sectors to exchange ideas and discuss pressing global issues.
