2025 Agenda: Let’s get radical

We are living in an era of unprecedented technological and scientific advancement. Yet, on critical issues like tackling the climate crisis and closing the equality gap, progress feels stubbornly slow. While tools and technologies can change dramatically quickly, shifting mindsets and dismantling entrenched systems can take generations. This year, we’re not waiting. We’re finding strength in our community and embracing our inner radical! Together, we’ll meet bold leaders who are accelerating societal change with disruptive ideas and daring action. And as we learn from their journeys, so we’ll equip ourselves with the skills and courage to lead our own.

Get inspired

A day which had true impact. and showed me how to throw the shackles off. The WOF mantra of do everything with kindness is invaluable. We're not going anywhere alone, and we sometimes forget that.
