Strategic Intelligence Co-curator Community

Strategic Intelligence Co-curator Community

The World Economic Forum’s Strategic Intelligence platform is a dynamic system of contextual intelligence that enables users to trace relationships and interdependencies between issues, supporting more informed decision-making.

It is co-curated with leading topic experts from academia, think tanks, and international organizations. Through co-curation, the Forum ensures that public-private partnerships benefit from the insight of world-class knowledge partners. At the same time, co-curators are able to share their expertise with the Forum’s extensive network of members, partners and constituents, as well as a growing public audience.
