“The future of the world,” says Klaus Schwab, “could be a kind of patchwork of coalitions which are trust-based.” WSJ sat down with the World Economic Forum founder as he prepared for his 53rd annual confab in Davos.
The past year brought war in Europe, surging inflation and an energy crisis, all while the world is still fighting the Covid-19 pandemic and related disruptions. Company executives are evaluating global supply chains and considering what they could make closer to home.
The Wall Street Journal’s editor in chief, Matt Murray, and Journal reporter Thomas Gryta sat down with World Economic Forum founder Klaus Schwab in November as he prepared for his 53rd annual confab in Davos, Switzerland this month.

Edited excerpts of the conversation follow.
