For years, Davos has been accused of producing more talk than action. This year was different. From the Hub Culture Studio at Davos 2026, Peter Tollefson Larsen, Global Editor of Reuters Breakingviews, joins Edie Lush to unpack why this was one of the rare Davos meetings where events didn’t just get discussed — they unfolded in real time. The conversation spans the sudden de-escalation around Greenland, President Trump’s deeply transactional approach to NATO, and the uncomfortable realization across Europe that long-held security assumptions may no longer apply. Beneath the diplomatic language, Larsen points to a growing European frustration — and the harder question of whether political will can translate into real action. The discussion also cuts through the noise on AI, separating hype from reality, and examines how uneven adoption, productivity gains, and rising inequality are reshaping executive decision-making. On climate, Larsen notes a clear shift: fewer direct conversations, more coded language around “resilience” — a signal that adaptation is quietly replacing prevention. Finally, a reminder that even in rooms full of power, misinformation travels fast, and confidence can amplify false narratives — a lesson as relevant to boardrooms as it is to democracies. A grounded, unsentimental look at geopolitics, markets, technology, and why this Davos may be remembered as the one where the world actually moved. #Davos #Davos2026 #Geopolitics #GlobalEconomy #NATO #Trump #AI #ClimateResilience #Leadership #GlobalMarkets #HubCulture #Reuters
