Green – who is perhaps best known for his novel, The Fault in Our Stars – will also be interviewed by the BBC’s Tanya Beckett.

In 2007, John started The VlogBrothers channel on YouTube with his brother, Hank. Since then the mix of educational, lifestyle and review videos has attracted more than 2.5 million subscribers.

The channel also hosts campaigns for the Green brothers’ charity project, Project for Awesome, which has raised more than $1.5 million for a range of charities to date.

As well as his wildly successful young adult fiction, John has launched an educational channel teaching literature, history, science and US government and politics.

The Annual Meeting is taking place in Davos from 20-23 January, under the theme “Mastering the Fourth Industrial Revolution”.
