Title: Collectively Disrupting the Economics of Cybercrime
When: January 21, 2025 from 9:30 to 10:15 a.m. CET
Overview: In the face of increasing cyberattacks, building alliances across organizations is an effective yet often overlooked strategy.

More About the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting
Today, individuals, organizations, and society at large are navigating major geo-economic shifts and an unprecedented pace of technological evolution. The 55th Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum will convene global leaders to discuss and pinpoint opportunities relating to these changes, which inspired the event’s theme: Collaboration for the Intelligent Age. The program will be oriented around five distinct but interconnected priorities: rebuilding trust, reimagining growth, investing in people, safeguarding the planet, and reimagining leadership strategies to evolve industries.
The Annual Meeting 2025 will bring together government, business and civil society leaders. In 2024, Davos attendees came from 125 countries, and included chief executives and chairs of the Forum 1,000 partner companies, public figures from across the world - including G7 and G20 countries, as well as heads of international organizations, leaders from the foremost civil society, labor and media organizations and top thinkers and academics.
During the meeting, participants will work to foster stronger partnerships, develop new policies and frameworks, and identify strategies for effectively deploying technology to address these priorities. Fortinet is committed to offering ongoing strategic insights to advance the global cybersecurity conversation.
