/ HEIMATMUSEUM DAVOS
Nestled in the heart of Davos, our event unfolded against the captivating backdrop of the Heimatmuseum . Steeped in local history and surrounded by the picturesque charm of Davos, this venue provided a unique setting for our gathering, this location offered a unique setting for our meeting, namely the interplay and tension between different poles, which we see as an opportunity to shape the future together:
Historical Tradition & Innovation for the Future
Without the past, there is no future. Where we go, we must understand where we come from. The Heimatmuseum provides the ideal setting for viewing the elements that have bound the world together in the past in order to shape the future.
Global Economy & Regrowing Local Roots
During the Annual Meeting, Davos is often called the ‘Global Village’ but the Local Roots are often overlooked. Also, with a tour through the museum, our CxO Luncheon aimed to bridge and combine both global and local, transcending superficial engagement and transactional approaches.
