World Economic Forum
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Economic_Forum The World Economic Forum (WEF), based in Cologny-Geneva, Switzerland, is an NGO, founded in 1971.
The WEF's mission is cited as "committed to improving the state of the world by engaging business, political, academic,
and other leaders of society to shape global, regional, and industry agendas".
It is a membership-based organization, and membership is made up of the world's largest corporations.
The WEF hosts an annual meeting at the end of January in Davos, a mountain resort in Graubünden, in the eastern Alps region of Switzerland.
The meeting brings together some 3,000 business leaders, international political leaders, economists,
celebrities and journalists for up to five days to discuss global issues, across 500 public and private sessions.
Beside meetings, the organization provides a platform for leaders from all stakeholder groups from around the world
– business, government and civil society – to collaborate on multiple projects and initiatives.
It also produces a series of reports and engages its members in sector-specific initiatives.

The Transnational Institute describes the World Economic Forum's main purpose as being
"to function as a socializing institution for the emerging global elite, globalization's "Mafiocracy" of bankers, industrialists, oligarchs, technocrats and politicians.
They promote common ideas, and serve common interests: their own."
In combination with the self-styled International Organization's pretensions, it has led to the citing of the informal motto "the NGO of the status quo".
