Meet another Davos disciple.
Here’s a World Economic Forum acolyte you probably didn't know was behind the digital ID agenda.
Dear friend,
Yesterday we began a series of biographies on key people linked to Klaus Schwab’s World Economic Forum (WEF) that you may not have ever heard of but that hold considerable sway in our society.
We will be continuing these articles over the coming weeks so you’re informed about how extensive the WEF influence is at home and around the world.

Meet Australia’s Davos Disciples #2
By guest contributor Kurt Mahlburg
The most prominent organisation seeking to impose a globalist agenda on nation states is the World Economic Forum (WEF), which has a alumni (from its leadership programs and conferences) whom have influence the world over.
Many of them are wealthy, well-connected and unelected — but are playing an outsized influence on the future trajectory of humanity.
It is in the interest of every lover of freedom to be aware of the Davos disciples who are shaping our future.
Meet Australia’s Digital ID proponent: ‘Davos Man’ David Thodey
David Thodey is a prominent Australian businessman based in Sydney who has enjoyed a staggering number of high-profile appointments despite completing only a Bachelor of Arts degree and a general management course.
He has been gifted several honorary awards and an Order of Australia for his work in the business world since.
Thodey is the Chair of Tyro Payments, Australia’s largest EFTPOS provider, and also Chair of accounting software company Xero.
He also sits on the Boards of both Ramsay Health Care, the largest private provider of hospitals in Australia, and Vodafone.
His prior appointments are even more impressive: Thodey was CEO for IBM Australia and New Zealand in 1999-2001, CEO of Telstra from 2009-2015, and Chair of the CSIRO Board from 2015-2021.
Curiously, David Thodey had a prominent voice in Australia’s response to COVID-19, being Deputy Chair of the National COVID-19 Coordination Commission (NCC) Advisory Board.
In 2018, Thodey was appointed by Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull to chair an independent review of the Australian Public Service, overseeing the ‘Thodey Report’ — one of the key documents driving Australia’s push towards a digital identity.
Recommendation 16 of the Thodey Report called for a “single digital identity solution where the public are able to verify to public and private service providers who they are” to act as “a single access point to all government services”.
Thodey called for at least $1 billion per year in funding towards “digital transformation” in Australia’s public service.
Digital ID has been a centrepiece of the World Economic Forum’s agenda since 2019, the same year the Thodey Report was released.
Thodey attended the WEF’s Davos Summit in both 2014 and 2015.
He also oversaw WEF agenda items embedded into CSIRO’s 2021-22 Corporate Plan.
These profiles help to illustrate the extent of the World Economic Forum’s reach into Australia’s corporate and non-profit sectors and politics.
They also raise questions about conflict of interest, when people in lucrative corporate positions, connected to an agenda-driven globalist body are the same people setting Australia’s domestic policy agenda from taxpayer-funded appointments.
