The meeting offers a collaborative environment to build problem-solving communities and initiatives, as these shifts become increasingly urgent and prominent. Learn more about McKinsey's ongoing strategic partnership with the World Economic Forum, and dive deeper on the key topics at Davos: Fostering global and regional cooperation Securing the economic recovery and shaping a new era of growth Building healthy and equitable societies Safeguarding climate, food, and nature Driving industry transformation Harnessing the power of the Fourth Industrial Revolution Stay tuned for more insights from McKinsey on #WEF22. Read more War in Ukraine: Twelve disruptions changing the world The war is devastating lives and roiling markets. Here we track the disruptions that seem likely to shape lives and livelihoods, beyond the immediate crisis. Navigate the crisis   The net-zero transition in the wake of the war in Ukraine: A detour, a derailment, or a different path? The invasion of Ukraine will, at least initially, complicate the transition path to a net-zero economy, but this tragic development could still prove to be a turning point in accelerating progress in the medium run. Understand global events   From risk management to strategic resilience Senior executives at leading companies reveal their commitment to move from defensive risk management to a forward-looking stance based on strategic resilience. Plan for success   Capital investment is about to surge: Are your operations ready? By 2027, about $130 trillion will flood into capital projects. But few organizations today could deliver with the speed and operational efficiency the influx demands. Prepare for growth   Navigating inflation: A new playbook for CEOs Few chief executives have faced the challenge of leading a company through an inflationary spike like today's. Lessons from strong leaders and bold action can help CEOs make the decisions that only they can make. Make smart moves   Securing Europe's future beyond energy: Addressing its corporate and technology gap European leaders have shown great resolve in their initial response at scale and speed to the war in Ukraine. They will need to build the same momentum to face the region's slow-motion corporate and technology crisis. An estimated €2 trillion to €4 trillion of annual value could be at stake—six times the amount needed for the net-zero transition—and with it Europe's long-term prosperity and strategic autonomy. A program of 11 actions can turn the tide.
