2009 Global Competitiveness Forum

The Global Competitiveness Forum (“GCF”) is an annual meeting of top business executives, international political leaders, selected intellectuals, and academics who share an interest in global competitiveness. The theme for the Global Competitiveness Forum 2009, to be held from 25 -27 January 2009, is “Responsible Competitiveness.”

Since Bill Gates opened the first Annual GCF under the theme, “ICT an Enabler of Competitiveness”, it has quickly become a global platform for constructive dialogue on core competitiveness issues, including – human resources development, international trade, knowledge based industries, FDI, the environment and sustainability, innovation, globalization – and the micro- and macroeconomic consequences of becoming globally competitive.

Start Date: 24 Jan 2009
End Date: 26 Jan 2009
