00:00Ladies and gentlemen, please join me in congratulating Idris Elba and Sabrina Elba for receiving the 2023 Crystal Award.
00:11I am so proud to say that to recognize us and the work that we do is to recognize all
00:18that we must do to continue to address and improve food security, gender equality, youth empowerment and glorious, glorious nature.
00:30Let's be frank. It's taken decades for corporates, for governments to understand for economies to be built to last.
00:38We need to empower the youth. We need social equity. We need to protect our environment.
00:46Today is well recognized that economic, social and natural well-being of our planet are completely insulated and Davos may
00:57be one of the first platforms to get it.
01:00We understand the power and the change that can come from this room. Davos has become the de facto platform
01:09for governments, for corporates, for philanthropists, for activism, for protesters to mobilize quickly, which is why we're all here, because
01:20we can move with agility and speed.
01:23And your speed is needed now.
01:25And your speed is needed now.
