Bilderberg/Steering committee
The Bilderberg Steering committee chooses the guests so plays an important role in the Bilderberg. It is chosen by the even more select Bilderberg advisory committee which typically has about 7 members, all of whom are former members of the steering committee. It has had 183 members over the years, and typically has around 25-30 members at any one time.

Profile
The steering committee contains a lot of bankers and businessmen, with particular companies being well represented, (such as IBM and Coca Cola). It contains some diplomats, politicians, editors, academics and journalists, but only a few spooks or deep politicians. Quite a lot of the businessmen members of the committee are also members of the 1001 Club and/or speakers at the World Economic Forum. Usually, members of the steering committee are serial Bilderberg attenders, but some - such as Klaus Schwab - attend only infrequently.
Decision making power

The Bilderberg Steering Committee decides whom to invite to meetings, and attempts to select those with a compatible worldview as regards one world governance.[1] Most of the members are businessmen and/or bankers from Western Europe or USA. Sometimes special guests are invited, such as Bill Clinton, who attended the October 6, 1995 meeting at the Four Seasons Hotel in Washington DC.[2]
Exposure
Minutes of some of 20th century Bilderberg Steering committee meetings are now available online[3] as is correspondence about business of the committee.[4] In 2012, 21st Century Wire announced a steering committee meeting was happening in Rome a day before it took place.[5]
