Børge Brende, WEF CEO, resigned after investigation found he met with Jeffrey Epstein.

Børge Brende, CEO of the World Economic Forum since 2017, resigned following an independent investigation that revealed he attended three business dinners and exchanged messages with Jeffrey Epstein. The announcement follows disclosures from the United States Justice Department and comes amid growing scrutiny of his previous associations. Brende, a former Norwegian minister and international public servant, cited personal reflection as the reason for his resignation, though the WEF has yet to release the full findings of the investigation.
