19-23 January 2026

Davos-Klosters, Switzerland

World Economic Forum Annual Meeting

Global supply chains sit at the center of economic stability, national security, and geopolitical competition, yet their weaknesses are increasingly tested—by conflict, coercive trade, and human rights abuse.

Exiger joined the World Economic Forum four years ago to address these challenges. At this year’s gathering in Davos, we continue the dialogue and innovation to find solutions to the world’s most challenging supply chain issues.

Leading Global Good

Exiger returns to USA House as an Eagle partner, building on our participation from the venue’s inaugural year. USA House serves as the official U.S. venue at Davos and the global kickoff of America’s 250th anniversary, hosted in partnership with Freedom 250.

Throughout the week, U.S. government leaders, industry executives, and global partners will convene around competitiveness, security, and leadership. Exiger executive conversations at USA House center on how technology, data, and supply chain intelligence underpin resilience, accountability, and leadership across:

Artificial intelligence
Energy and critical minerals
Space, national security and defense

Executives from Exiger will lead two Main Stage and Delegate Lounge panels:

Brandon Daniels

Brandon is Chief Executive Officer of Exiger and a World Economic Forum Governor, where he contributes to industry dialogue on AI, supply chain resilience, and global risk.

Kit Conklin

Kit is Senior Vice President of Risk & Compliance at Exiger and a former advisor to the U.S. House Select Committee on China.

This panel brings together senior AI leadership, defense and industry operators, capital allocators, and workforce architects to examine how the United States is rebuilding the infrastructure of high-velocity innovation — from the boardroom to the battlefield. The discussion focuses on what it takes to move from concept to credible, delivering real-world capability at unprecedented speed, without sacrificing assurance, resilience, or trust.

The Integrated Trade Strategy Powering America’s Industrial Revival

The panel will examine how AI, data integration, and continuous supply chain intelligence now underpin modern trade enforcement and why this integrated approach is essential to disrupt illicit networks, reduce the flow of dangerous and prohibited goods, and ensure that global trade rewards transparency, resilience, and compliance.

Ending Forced Labor in Supply Chains

Introducing Our Free AI Tool to Find Forced Labor in Your Supply Chains

Our new solution, forcedlabor.ai, is now available at no cost to identify whether a company or its supply chain is tied to state-sponsored forced labor.

Read the press release

Forced labor remains one of the most entrenched challenges in global supply chains, affecting an estimated 28 million people worldwide through practices such as debt bondage, exploitation of migrant workers, wage theft, and state-imposed labor. These abuses persist not from lack of intent, but from fragmented data across business, government, and civil society.

Global Data Partnership Against Forced Labour

The World Economic Forum’s Global Data Partnership Against Forced Labour is addressing this gap by developing a trusted, federated data infrastructure—an intelligence layer designed to enable collective action while respecting governance and privacy.

As the founding supply chain technology provider, Exiger contributes data and technology expertise to help surface risk hidden deep within global value chains.

On January 20, the Partnership will release Harnessing Data and Intelligence for Collective Advantage: Ending Forced Labour in Global Supply Chains, examining how data-driven collaboration can close transparency gaps and accelerate global progress. Exiger is a proud contributor to this report.

NGO Collaboration

Exiger works with leading NGOs including Slave-Free Alliance | Hope for Justice, Transparency International, and the Anti-Slavery Collective to ensure that technology amplifies human rights expertise, awareness, and supply chain visibility.

We also have a longstanding partnership alongside With Honor, an organization that works to bridge divides and foster collaboration in Congress through principled veteran leadership.

Revealing the Real Scale of Modern Slavery

How can data-sharing partnerships strengthen accountability in the fight against forced labor and modern slavery?

Exiger CEO and World Economic Forum Governor Brandon Daniels speaks at the WEF 2025 panel “Revealing the Real Scale of Modern Slavery” to examine the true scale of modern slavery and the data gaps that allow it to persist.

Critical Minerals

Exiger’s Critical Minerals Intelligence Hub reveals how hidden dependencies on minerals like antimony, gallium, and germanium threaten U.S. defense, energy, and tech sectors amid escalating geopolitical tensions.

Explore how AI-driven supply chain mapping can help your organization identify vulnerabilities, comply with evolving regulations, and secure alternative sources for critical minerals before disruptions strike.
