Ahead of his main address to the forum, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskiy met business leaders including the JP Morgan bank chief executive Jamie Dimon. READ MOREDimon apparently introduced himself to Zelenskiy — “I’m Jamie Dimon from JPMorgan Chase.

Besides war and the deteriorating global security situation, the biggest theme of this year’s Davos event is the disruptive impact of AI technologies.
