Is it the first time that HM is at the WEF in Davos? I can't remember that she went before. What reason is given for her attendance? The main purpose of the WEF seems networking and not much else.

how exciting that maxima met with felipe!
i wonder if her speech was in spanish this time. :)
 
When it is in the framework of the UN or the Orange Fund, then the Queen dresses visibly 'down', with messy hair et al. She does not want to be portrayed as "The Queen" but as "UN-representant" but that is a lost battle. She is and remains the Queen anyway. I would advise her to keep up her appearances as Queen, even when she is not representing the kingdom of the Netherlands.

On March 25 Queen Máxima as Special Advocate of the Secretary-General of the UN for Inclusive Finance for Development and as Honorary President of Platform Wiser in Money Matters has attended a working dinner on the importance of financial education in Europe in Brussels:

I recognise Minister Dijsselbloem (Finance) and former Foreign Affairs minister Timmermans (now vice president of the European Commission) and Klaas Knot, the president of the Dutch Bank. The others must be other EU hot shots.
 
The Royal family was not complete at the dinner table tonight, because Queen Máxima dined in Brussels with European administrators, policy makers and representatives from the financial sector.

The stamina of this globetrotter is beyond belief. On the same day as "Copenhagen" and directly after it the Queen had engagements in the Netherlands. Now she is again at the other side of the world. In the meantime she is a mother and a spouse. Unbelievable.
 
What Dutch engagements had HM between Copenhagen and Washington? It seems that we missed it as I can not find it on the website of the RF. I suppose she musn't be the only one who travels with this frequency.
 
I was mistaken by the timeline of pictures on the site of a press agency. The Queen visited a foodbank project in Amersfoort, the King's Day Concert in Dordrecht, went to Copenhagen, visited a NCO/NWO-symposium in Utrecht and then went to the IMF/UN in the United States. Now it seems the pictures of the symposium in Utrecht was placed after the photo-stream from Copenhagen but actually happened a few days earlier. I missed that news, I stand corrected.
 
Queen Maxima is currently in New York.
