Klaus Schwab is a professor who got invited to the secret Bilderberg Conference of center-right senior big shots (e.g., Kissinger), then had a great business idea: Instead of keeping it a secret, tell the media that invitees to his new Davos shindig REALLY DO RUN THE WORLD.

Instead of keeping the proceedings secret like Bilderberg does, Schwab blasted out as much publicity for his new Davos get-together as he could beg, borrow, or steal.

The reason Klaus Schwab dresses like a Bond movie supervillain is not because he is a supervillain, but because it's good for his brand when you think he has supervillain powers.
