The World Economic Forum will host its third Summit on the Global Agenda in Dubai from 29 November to 1 December 2010. The Summit is held in partnership with the United Arab Emirates represented by the Government of Dubai.
The Summit brings together the Forum’s Network of Global Agenda Councils, which consist of the world’s most relevant thought leaders from academia, business, government and society. They will engage in interactive workshops and sessions to set priorities for the most compelling ideas to improve the state of the world and identify relevant risks and innovative responses to address the world’s challenges.

We’ll be streaming the plenary sessions and press conferences from the Summit on our Livestream channel and on our website.
In the Conference Centre, a dedicated video corner will allow Global Agenda Council members to give their views on the key trends for 2011 as part of the Davos Debates in Dubai. The Davos Debates is a video channel on YouTube dedicated to public debate and discussion with global leaders on the key issues affecting our planet.
