Bilderberg

Victor Halberstadt is one of the most regular Bilderberg attendees — having attended the Bilderberg every year since 1975. He is a longtime member of the Bilderberg Steering committee and was honorary Secretary General of the Bilderberg group from 1980 to 2000.

Halberstadt is the successor of Ernst van der Beugel in the administration of Bilderberg. Van der Beugel wrote in a book of congratulations made for Halberstadt: "Around 1980 - Bilderberg had been around for more than 25 years - the "inner circle" decided that the time had come to rejuvenate Bilderberg and to transfer control to a generation that could be regarded as the successor to the "establishment "of the fifties and sixties". 'The Honorary Secretary General's choice was crucial to that rejuvenation. The choice fell on Victor and that is not nothing."

Key positions

Halberstadt has held several positions, including Crown Member of the Social-Economic Council (1972–2004), Honorary Secretary-General of the Bilderberg Group, President of the International Institute of Public Finance (1987–1990), Director of Concertgebouw (1988–2011), Member of the Faculty of the World Economic Forum (1990–), Member of the International Advisory Board of Goldman Sachs Group Inc (1991–), Chairman of the Daimler-Chrysler International Advisory Board (1995–2005), Member of the Board of Trustees of De Nederlandse Opera (2003–), Member of the Board of Trustees of the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy (2005–), and Member of the Board of Trustees of the Boekman Foundation (2009–).
