PwC’s 27th Annual Global CEO Survey Launch
On 15 January, we launched the findings of our 27th Annual Global CEO Survey in Davos. The survey of 4,702 CEOs in 105 countries and territories took place against a backdrop of rapid technological transformation, looming threats posed by climate change, increased complexity in the regulatory environment and various other geopolitical tensions. Responses reveal that economic optimism among CEOs has more than doubled compared to 2023, yet almost half of CEOs do not believe their businesses will be viable in a decade as tech and climate pressures accelerate. To learn more, read the report, and watch PwC Global Chair Bob Moritz discuss the findings from Davos.
