00:00For the last 55 years, the World Economic Forum has set the global agenda.
00:07They claim to improve the state of the world, but critics say they just improved their own contact list.
00:13So what actually happens in the snow?
00:17It is the ultimate VIP club.
00:20Expect 3,000 participants, including 60 heads of state.
00:25This year Donald Trump has confirmed his return, joining leaders like Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelenskyy and the EU's Ursula von der Leyen.
00:34Among various topics they will debate geopolitics, quantum economy, green growth and the future of AI.
00:42And our goal this year? To see if these elites really rule the world, or just pretend to.
00:49Last year we wrote over 130 articles that attracted over a quarter of a million page views.
00:55So we know you're really interested in knowing the answer.
00:59Finally, there is a money question. Hotel rooms can skyrocket to 3,000 euros a night,
01:06while a two-bedroom flat often goes for 30,000 euros for the week.
01:11And as for the luxury charlots, they can easily hit 100,000 to 200,000 euros.
01:19But don't worry, we paid the bill so you don't have to.
01:23We don't know yet what the global elite is up to this year.
01:27But if you stay with us, we can discover it together.
