Investor Gala & Awards Ceremony
Palace Schatzalp, Davos.

Founded by HQ.Partners, the Forum convened its inaugural edition at the historic Palace Schatzalp, above Davos, in January 2026. Not a single evening but a fully curated week: HQ.Partners assembled the delegation, built the program, arranged private apartments in the village, and scheduled each company into the briefings, side events, and closed-door sessions that mattered.

Five defining questions for Davos 2026

The race for the cheapest hour of labour is over. The race for the cheapest, cleanest kilowatt-hour has begun.

  1. From the billable hour to the billable token. Robots and AI run on electricity, so the cost of automated work now tracks the kilowatt-hour.
  2. From values to margins. Since January 2026 the EU has priced carbon at its border, so decarbonisation is now margin protection.
  3. From dependency to abundance. Whoever can guarantee a reliable, low-cost, clean electron wins.
