Hub Culture Davos 2026: Sarah Backhouse of World 50 on Geopolitics, AI & Trust in a Tense Davos 199 views

Davos 2026 feels different — and not subtly. In this conversation at the Hub Culture Studio, Sarah Backhouse, Executive Director at World 50 Group, joins Edie Lush to unpack what’s shaping this year’s World Economic Forum — and why the mood has shifted. With over 800 CEOs, major political leaders, and a heightened geopolitical backdrop, Sarah explains why this Davos feels more tense, more cautious, and more consequential. From geopolitical flashpoints and transatlantic stability, to AI’s move from hype to deployment — and the early, still-fragile signs of ROI — this is a grounded view from inside the global C-suite. She also reflects on the quieter presence of sustainability, the rise of trust and insularity highlighted by the Edelman Trust Barometer, and the growing responsibility leaders have to break out of their own echo chambers. Davos isn’t just about what’s said on stage — it’s about what leaders are wrestling with behind the scenes. This conversation captures that reality. #davos2026 #Leadership #Geopolitics #ArtificialIntelligence #Trust #GlobalBusiness #CEOCommunity #FutureOfWork #HubCulture #World50
