Sunday, January 18, 2026- The global spotlight is fixed on Davos 2026 as President Donald Trump prepares to take center stage at the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Switzerland. With the event running from January 19–23, Trump is arriving in person with the largest-ever U.S. delegation, including five Cabinet secretaries and top White House officials a show of force that underscores just how influential his presence is expected to be.
This year’s Davos gathers roughly 3,000 leaders from 130 countries, with around 64 heads of state and government already confirmed, placing Trump among the most high-profile participants.
Trump’s role at Davos isn’t just ceremonial it’s strategic. His administration’s initiatives, from pressing global security conversations to economic policy stances, are shaping key discussions.
In a Davos first, a “USA House” hub backed by major corporations has been set up to amplify U.S. engagement and networking throughout the forum. Trump’s influence has stirred both interest and controversy among attendees, positioning him as a central figure in geopolitical and economic dialogue.
