From Dialogue to Design: A Sprint of Action | The Digital Economist's Davos Agenda 2026

From Dialogue to Design is not a slogan for us—it is a working method.

A few days ago, we convened an open forum to do exactly that: open the room, share lived experience, and replace abstraction with practical clarity.

From Dialogue to Design: A Spirit of Action: The Digital Economist’s Davos Agenda 2026 was created as a space for clarity. Delegates from last year—several of whom will be returning in 2026—shared lived experience, practical lessons, and the realities that don’t always make it into public narratives. The conversation moved from access and badges to energy management, side events, follow-up, and the long arc of relationship-building that Davos actually enables.

What surfaced was a shared understanding:
Davos is not a conference. It is an ecosystem.
Presence alone is not the point—alignment is.

At The Digital Economist, our Davos work is grounded in that principle. Our 2026 agenda—From Dialogue to Design—centers on moving beyond conversation toward intentional design across institutions, infrastructure, finance, and common goods. Panels, receptions, and curated dialogues are structured not for visibility, but for continuity and action.

This forum was an invitation—to ask candid questions, to understand what to expect, and to explore how engagement, whether in Davos or through our year-round Fellowship, can be purposeful rather than performative.

Dialogue opens the room.
Design determines what we carry forward.
