Would it matter if Davos just went away? 
In the immediate term, the answer seems to be: Not all that much. 
Davos’s defenders over the years have argued that the conference, with so much global media in attendance, is a singular place to advance the conversation about how to improve the state of the world. This is where the stakeholder capitalism movement — which urges companies to look beyond the bottom line — gained traction, where globalization found its most ardent champions and where grandiose documents like the “Davos Manifesto,” which calls on companies to be more responsible, debuted.
