Davos, Switzerland | January 2026
The Smart Cities Council (SCC) is proud to announce Vantiq as the official sponsor of its “Members & Friends” Delegation attending the World Economic Forum (WEF) Annual Meeting 2026 in Davos.
This prestigious delegation brings together a select group of SCC Global Thought Leaders, urban transformation pioneers, and changemakers—individuals and partners who are not only shaping the future of cities, but ready to act on it.
Held under the SCC’s 2026 banner, “Enabling Cities and Communities to Transform and Aim Towards SMART Outcomes,” the delegation will participate in a series of curated engagements across Davos, Zurich, and Zug, focused on activating ideas into scalable city solutions.
“This is a working delegation, made up of leaders who can deliver real outcomes,” said Corey Gray, Chair and President of Smart Cities Council. “We are thrilled to have Vantiq and Deep Tech Week as sponsors — their support enables us to convene the right people, in the right rooms, to move beyond rhetoric and into results.”
