Trump makes 15 new friends in Davos, three of Indian origin
Trump, who arrived here Thursday afternoon, told Schwab who on his part said the US President's strong leadership is open to misconceptions and biased interpretations that he has made "15 new friends" here in Davos.
US President Donald Trump on Friday declared before a full house at Davos that he has made "15 new friends" whom he did not know before at a dinner last night - including three of Indian origin. After a 'band' welcome and a nearly 20-minute speech, Trump sat down for a brief question and answers session with WEF Founder Klaus Schwab on the last day of the annual pow-wow of rich and powerful from across the 'fractured' world and began by complementing him for putting together this "really great" economic forum, reports PTI.

Trump, who arrived here Thursday afternoon, told Schwab - who on his part said the US President's strong leadership is open to misconceptions and biased interpretations - that he has made "15 new friends" here in Davos. "We had dinner last night with about 15 leaders of industry - none of whom I knew, but all of whom I have read about for years - and it was truly an incredible group," Trump said.

"And I think I have 15 new friends. So this has been really great what you have done in putting it together, the economic forum," he said. These 15 industry leaders from Europe - whom Trump described as "very powerful businesspeople of the world" and asked them to introduce themselves one by one and say a few words at the dinner table, as per a White House release -included Swiss pharma giant Novartis' incoming CEO Vas Narasimhan, Nokia CEO Rajeev Suri and Deloitte CEO Punit Renjen.

Others were heads of Bayer, Anheuser-Busch InBev, Siemens, AB Volvo, SAP, Adidas, Statoil, Nestle, ABB and HSBC. At the dinner, Renjen said, "Mr President, thank you for having me. Punit Renjen from Deloitte. On behalf of 265,000 employees across the globe, 70,000 in the US, thank you again for having us".

As per the White House release, Trump replied, "Great company. Thank you very much. Great job." Suri said Nokia runs the world's second largest telecom network and has 15,000 people in the US and one of its strongest R&D setups in the world is spread throughout the US.

He further said, "We have half of the acquisition of Alcatel-Lucent. We own Nokia Bell Labs, which is in New Jersey. We do a lot of stuff in the West Coast, in Chicago, and throughout the country, really. So just under half of our people do research and development, and the rest are doing services and 4G networks and 5G. So I'm very happy and pleased with your infrastructure focus..."

Narasimhan said Novartis is one of the largest health care companies in the world and its focus is on innovative medicines, generics, as well as eye care. He elaborated that Novartis has about 22,000 employees in the US across 21 sites and invests about USD 14 billion every year in the US, including USD 3.5 billion in research.

Further, he described US as one of the key markets and also key places where it drives innovation. "And we are really pleased with the tax reform, but also very pleased with the great progress being made at FDA. We believe you have a great leadership team there and they are doing all the right things to accelerate innovation," he said.

Trump replied, "Scott is great, and Alex is great. You know, Alex is just starting, and he's highly respected. So that's fantastic. Scott Gottlieb, as you know, is a star," referring to his FDA Commissioner and Health and Human Services Secretary, respectively. Narasimhan said further, "He (Scott) is a star. And I think his vision for tobacco and trying to improve - reduce the use of tobacco around the world is also very inspiring."

After everyone's introduction, Trump said, "I want to thank everybody. Really, you have done incredible work, incredible jobs. These are some of the great companies of the world, many of the great companies of the world".

Nokia celebrates 30th commercial 5G deal

Press Release

Nokia's customer agreements span the full end-to-end spectrum of 5G technologies and major global regions

28 March 2019

Espoo, Finland - Nokia is celebrating its 30th commercial 5G deal with the announcement March 25th of a new contract with Austria's A1. The agreements demonstrate Nokia's extensive portfolio of 5G capabilities, the industry's only true end-to-end range available globally from a single provider.

Taken together, the 30 commercial deals - including 16 with publicly named service provider customers - offer an insight into the progress of 5G roll-outs around the world and illustrate the value network operators see in this technology. A full list of Nokia's 5G announcements can be found here.

"This achievement marks a proud moment for Nokia as a company," commented Rajeev Suri, President and Chief Executive Officer of Nokia. "With these agreements, creating new partnerships and continuing existing relationships around the world, we can see the promise of 5G becoming a reality. Many of the 30 commercial 5G deals we celebrate today include multiple elements from across our end-to-end portfolio as our customers turn to Nokia at each stage of their 5G investment cycle."

Where operators are looking for the capability to quickly deploy new 5G capacity and speed to their existing network, Harri Holma, Nokia Bell Labs Fellow, explains in a March 26 blog how Nokia 5G radio can be deployed regardless of the incumbent 4G network vendor.

With the industry's most comprehensive portfolio of small cells and macro solutions, alongside the smart transport to connect them, Nokia's 5G product suite is designed to offer operators the flexibility and capability to deliver 5G to a full range of end users. With the new Fixed Wireless Access device announced at MWC 2019, Nokia technologies can take our customers' services right into users' homes - allowing operators to provide complete coverage to end users, and delivering the first experience of real 5G to consumers.

Powering its 5G portfolio with truly "cloud native" core technology rather than an evolution of current core solutions means Nokia has the flexibility to deliver on key client needs. This capability means operators can offer low latency, high throughput, content-rich services - and can integrate their 5G builds alongside existing 2G, 3G, 4G radio and fixed access networks.

"Nokia's momentum in 5G agreements shows that its end-to-end strategy with a broad range of technology solutions is working," said Chris Nicoll, ACG Wireless and Mobility Principal Analyst. "Given its articulated evolution path for this technology, Nokia can offer long-term partnership, rather than a transactional vendor relationship - an approach that also is contributing to this momentum. Service providers on the journey to 5G are at different stages of maturity and it is crucial that vendors in this market are prepared to support that full journey, not just part of the way."

Isha Ambani, 27, will marry Anand Piramal, 33, executive director of Piramal Group, in Mumbai on Tuesday, but the festivities began this weekend in Rajasthan's 'City of Lakes' Udaipur, with three days of pre-wedding rituals.

Other high-profile corporate leaders attending the wedding festivities include Khalid Al-Falih, chairman of Saudi Aramco; Bill Winters, CEO, Standard Chartered Bank; WPP founder Martin Sorell; Kenneth Hitchner, chairman and chief executive officer of Goldman Sachs in Asia Pacific ex-Japan; Nicolas Aguzin, chairman and CEO, JP Morgan Asia Pacific; Farhan Faruqui, group executive international, ANZ; Klaus Schwab, founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum; Arianna Huffington, founder of The Huffington Post and CEO of Thrive Global; and Rajeev Suri, president and CEO of Nokia.

ONCE and 4 all: Here is list and names of all people who attended and gave a speech or received an award. SOROS is NOWHERE mentioned or on any list!!!!!!
The World Economic Forum's (WEF) 48th annual meeting is coming to Davos, Switzerland next week. Here are the Davos attendees 2018.

The WEF's organisers are expecting a record number of leaders from G7 economies to attend, along with many other heads of state, leaders of government and international organisations, and business, civil society, academia, the arts and media, with some 400 sessions planned.

US president Donald Trump caused a stir when his administration revealed earlier this month he would be attending - while German chancellor Angela Merkel might also be there, potentially setting up a showdown between Trump and the world's globalist political establishment.

This year's opening address will be delivered by India's prime minister Narendra Modi, with Trump expected to deliver a keynote address before the close of the meeting.

Over 21 percent of participants at this year's meeting will be women, a higher proportion than at any previous meeting and the event will be chaired by seven women - the first all-female panel in its history.

The WEF 2018's all female co-chairs are: Sharan Burrow, general secretary of the International Trade Union Confederation; Fabiola Gianotti, European Organization for Nuclear Research's (CERN) general director; Isabelle Kocher, chief executive at Engie; Christine Lagarde, the International Monetary Fund's (IMF) general director, Ginni Rometty IBM chief executive, Chetna Sinha, founder of the Mann Deshi Foundation, and Erna Solberg, prime minister of Norway.

Other leaders from the G20 include Liu He, general director of CPC Central Committee of the People's Republic of China; Mauricio Macri, president of Argentina, Cyril Ramaphosa, deputy president of South Africa; Michel Temer, president of Brazil, and Alain Berset, president of the Swiss Confederation.

The recipients of the World Economic Forum's 24th Annual Crystal Awards are the actress Cate Blanchett, singer Elton John, and actor Shah Rukh Khan. The awards - presented on the evening of 22 January - celebrate artists who have "shown commitment to improving the state of the world".

The theme for this year's Davos meeting is Creating a Shared Future in a Fractured World.
