Biografie & Werdegang des Autors
Klaus Schwab was born in Ravensburg, Germany, on March 30, 1938. He studied at the Humanistisches Gymnasium there before moving into a notably interdisciplinary education: engineering at ETH Zurich, economics at the University of Fribourg, and, in 1967, a master’s degree in public administration from Harvard’s Kennedy School. Early work on factory floors, with the German Machine-Building Association, and then on the managing board of Sulzer Escher Wyss gave him a managerial perspective grounded in industry rather than theory alone. From 1972 to 2003, he also taught business policy at the University of Geneva. ((https://www.weforum.org/about/klaus-schwab/))
