“The Forum aims to bring together the new elite – communications experts who are
capable of predicting the next steps in the development of the industry and creating new
business value,” said Yanina Dubeykovskaya, Co-founder and Content Director at WCF. “The
fourth edition of the World Communication Forum in Davos focuses on the clash between
global and local communications, new mechanisms of trust and engagement, creativity as a
key expertise, the growing influence of the visual language, the status of reality in
social media, and the viral change.”

The C4F (Communication for Future) Davos Awards played a key part in foreseeing the
future. Their motto is “See the future, and the future will see you!” This special award
ceremony is annually held with the intention to express recognition to outstanding
communicators with a creative approach, revolutionary visions for the future and who have
had an impact on the development of the communications industry. Here are this year’s
awardees in the following six categories:

        - Image of the future - Alfred Koblinger, CEO of BBDO Holding (Austria)
        - Media of the future - Jason Ng, Blogger, Twitter activist, COO of
          geekpark.net, Founder of Twittalk.net, Start-Upper (China)

Additionally, there was be a sub-event during the forum this February – the first
Creative Class Global Meeting. Its main idea is to unite innovative creators with bright
ideas, who share similar values and are somehow connected by the social networks. It
provoked them to think whether a “new manifest” is possible and how they could cooperate
in a world-changing way.

In general by now the World Communication Forum has been supported by a great number
of international partner associations and organizations from about 40 countries around the
globe: IAB Europe, The Holmes Report (USA), International Communications Consultancy
Organisation (ICCO), Public Relations Consultants Association (PRCA) in UK, Association of
PR Agencies in Switzerland (BPRA), Trans-Arabian Creative Communications (TRACCS), PRORP -
The Mexican Association of Public Relations, Russian Public Relations Association (RPRA),
Armenian Public Relations Association (APRA), Association of Business Communicators of
India (ABCI), Brazilian Association of Communication Agencies – ABRACOM and more.

The Forum was broadcasted live and was actively presented in the social networks
during the event itself, as well as throughout the whole year. A unique mark of this
edition was the offline opportunity for the participants to Like, Comment & Share.
