This year, there are 3,000 active participants. About 800 are Americans, so roughly every fourth person is from the states. The remaining 27,000 include security, restaurant workers, news media, and support staff. With the growing violence around the world, this week has a strong contingent from the Swiss military protecting everyone.

There are more than 60 heads of state coming to this World Economic Forum, including President Donald J. Trump. An American President brings a huge contingent of people (The President has 24/7 security, no matter where he or she is).
