Covering the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland every year is something I consider a competitive sport.

I’m actually starting to train for the intense summer week, as my few close friends know (and yes, they all make fun of me). The number of workouts each week gradually increases, making it easy for me to run the two-mile walk with a backpack to attend as many meetings as humanly possible (yes, I do that).

They will also be looking to make a case for their business before earnings season begins and as markets become a little more volatile of late.

Unlike our previous trips to Davos over the past decade, I will be recording several special episodes of the Opening Bid podcast on the ground. I could tell you who those guests will be, but where’s the fun in that? Better to be surprised!
