Bilderberg

Bilderberg is an annual conference designed to foster dialogue between Europe and North America. Every year, between 120-150 political leaders and experts from industry, finance, academia, and the media are invited to take part in the conference. About two thirds of its participants come from Europe and the rest from North America, one third from politics and government and the rest from other fields. Bilderberg is a forum for informal discussions about megatrends and major issues facing the world. Its meetings are held under the Chatham House Rule, which states that participants are free to use the information received, but neither the identity nor the affiliation of the speakers nor of any other participant may be revealed. Bilderberg was founded in 1954.
