If you’ve been keeping an eye on the long shadow cast by Jeffrey Epstein’s past relationships, you know the ripple effects are still hitting powerful circles. Now, another prominent figure is making a big decision. Børge Brende is stepping down as president and CEO of the World Economic Forum after renewed attention focused on his previously disclosed interactions with Epstein.
Brende addressed the decision directly. “I am grateful for the incredible collaboration with my colleagues, partners, and constituents, and I believe now is the right moment for the Forum to continue its important work without distractions,” Brende said in a statement.
