Eighteen Lessons From Davos 2026 on Finding the Next Game-Changers

We’re not just reflecting on Davos 2026 — we’re acting.

Here are the 18 lessons guiding us as we identify and empower the game changers shaping our future.

The Lessons

  • Targets are set globally but lived locally
  • Focus on purpose, combine with necessity
  • Real applications to problems come in clusters
  • Find regulations that keep target RoI in mind
  • EM = safety enforcement, financing of contract is the barrier to overcome
  • Bird of one feather… get to work together
  • Dream big, pitch, take a step each, repeat
  • Adoption happens via the balance sheet
  • Keep the taxes and the budget low, welfare fair and invest in innovation
  • Regenerative = focusing on financial flows
  • Data + science + scalable design = solutions
  • Move from anthropocentric to ecocentric
  • Don’t rely on Earth systems as a buffer
  • Partnerships are the new leadership
  • Power of relationships = build ideas together
  • Paradigm shift: use regulation to innovate
  • European solutions exist. Go-to-market is key

(And yes, we’re also walking the talk on lesson 13: Inspire a net-zero reality.)

We’re moving with those who want to act, not just make reversible commitments. If you’re ready to turn ideas into impact, let’s connect.
