This year’s annual conference for World Economic Forum (WEF),that’ll take place in Davos Switzerland, from January 16,2023 to January 20,2023 will revolve around "Cooperation in a fragmented world", which aims to address the most pressing global problems and foster pragmatic solutions. A carefully chosen group of delegates from international business, government, civil society, media, and academics congregate to engage in sessions meant to stimulate fruitful dialogue about the most significant challenges of the day—and consequently hope to make a difference.

Setting a record, more than 2,500 delegates are anticipated to participate this year, including the Chairman and Joint Managing Director of BLS International, Mr. Shikhar Aggarwal. The conference is also anticipated to draw close to 100 corporate titans from India, including Gautam Adani, Mukesh Ambani, Kumar Mangalam Birla, N Chandrasekaran, Nadir Godrej, Adar Poonawalla, Sajjan Jindal, and Sanjiv Bajaj.

Amidst a somewhat unprecedented amount of turmoil in the global macroeconomic environment and geopolitical landscape such a dialogue between a world leader is essential to draw and derive solutions to bring the world together. As the world navigates the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and looks towards a more sustainable and equitable future, the role of India which retains its position as one of the fastest-growing economies in the world, is primal in shaping the global dialogue.

Mr. Diwakar Aggarwal said, “Global leaders must work together and cooperate as the globe continues to face numerous complicated and interrelated problems. To ensure a better future for everyone in a world that is becoming more and more fragmented, we must develop comprehensive and coordinated solutions to these issues. Fostering trust, cooperation, and resilience requires strengthening social cohesion, or the ties within a society. Social cohesion can aid in reducing conflict, promoting stability, and enabling groups to collaborate to achieve common goals by fostering a sense of inclusion and belonging.”

Furthermore he added, “From the very onset BLS International has been driven to constantly foster and create new public-private cooperation paradigms not just in India but around various global economies.”

Mr. Shikhar Aggarwal commented, “Living in the new world order with incubation and acceptance of the digital economy we have been able to surpass the boundaries and make the world flat. Aș digitisation and automation become a norm, what will differentiate providers is the quality of service that will be translated into customer experience. With this vision I can proudly say that BLS International has swiftly turned from an Indian homegrown enterprise into a global corporation.”

Additionally, he said, “Very recently, we have touched a billion dollar market capitalization establishing ourselves as a partner of choice with client governments worldwide with an impeccable reputation for setting benchmarks in the domain of Visa, Passport, Consular, E-governance, Attestation, Biometric, E-visa, and retail services while also providing citizen services to state and provincial governments. We ensure that consumers of service are enabled to have the best possible experience and are kept paramount.”
