January 28, 2007 by Chris | permalink
The WEF at Davos was everything that i had imagined that it would be. A week of being amoungst the world's most powerful people. i was privileged to dine with those who make decisions that effect millions, if not billions, of the world's citizenry. the week was so full of working sessions that by saturday i was simply exhausted.
the highlights?
1. watching the US senator from Georgia getting cut down to size as he steadfastly refused to acknowldge human induced climate change.
2. having dinner with the chairman of the US FTC and seeing that there are some in Washington who really do passionatly care more about doing the right thing than party politics
3. sharing our Drivers of Change 2006 publication story with Stuart Butterfield, the creator of Flickr
4. meeting Joe Golden, of ACCEL, in the plane from london who became my Davos mentor
5. seeing how the reality of Climate Change has finally hit home
6. realizing that there is so much that ech of us can really can do to make a difference
7. meeting the Kapors.
