The B.H.M.S. students participated at the WEF in Davos

The 48th World Economic Forum Annual Meeting took place in the Swiss Alpine resort of Davos-Klosters from 23rd-26th January 2018 and the B.H.M.S. students had the opportunity to participate in this special annual event!

The World Economic Forum is an independent international organization committed to improve the state of the world by engaging business, political, academic and other leaders of society to shape global, regional and industry agendas.

The B.H.M.S. students visited Davos, along with the school’s director Mr. Beat Wicki, and supported the Chalet Seehof during this World Economic Forum.
The students had the unique experience to show what Swiss hospitality means in the organization and F&B service.
