In Davos, Switzerland, from 22 to 26 January 2014 are held key activities of the 44th session of the World Economic Forum (WEF).

One of the priorities of the Russian delegation will be the announcement of the Olympiad-2014, said Deputy Prime Minister Arkady Dvorkovich.

This year, the discussions at the forum are attended by over 40 heads of state and government, as well as more than 2,500 representatives of government agencies, the higher echelons of business and public organizations from 100 countries.

The International agenda of the Forum will address issues of G20 and BRICS. As the founder Klaus Schwab said, this year's session of the program focuses on four main themes - the impact of innovation on modern life, the prospects for global development, civil society participation in economic processes, the question of "9000000000", associated with population growth.

It is noteworthy that the Russian language has become almost the second official in Davos-2014. The key "Universal Financial Review" will be broadcasted in English and Russian.
