About this programme
A neurodiversity summit during WEF Annual Meeting week, with in-person participation in Davos and a parallel virtual programme. The organizer currently maps the five-day programme to 18–22 January 2027 and marks it subject to change. Exact times, venue and several session details remain unannounced.
Different minds, shared leadership
Hosted by NODI, the Davos Neurodiversity Summit combines an in-person programme with parallel virtual participation. Its conversations explore cognitive diversity, leadership and the environments that help different minds contribute. The announced five-day overview runs from 18 to 22 January 2027.
Across the week
Optional welcome drinks and a sensory-friendly walk open the week. Tuesday is the main conversation day, with the Leadership Wall, discussions about leadership and belonging, an innovation exhibition and a dinner conversation on neural data and human agency. Retreats, working groups and workshops follow, with an awards dinner and ceremony on Thursday. Friday offers optional small-group reflection and shared activities.
Choosing how to participate
The parallel virtual programme is announced for 20–22 January, with streamed conversations and participatory activities. The awards ceremony is also due to be livestreamed, while in-person attendance at that dinner is invitation-only. Exact clocks, venue details and several participation arrangements are still to come. The organizer marks the programme subject to change; accessibility information for individual activities will be announced separately.
