The guests included business executives, politicians, financiers, editors/journalists and academics. The next meeting was the 1983 Bilderberg.
Agenda
The 1982 Bilderberg Conference Report was the first to include more than just the nationality of visitors. All known reports after 1981 have included a short (1 line) summary of guests. The reasons for the change are unknown. The report has been leaked and is now online. There were five topics on the agenda.[1]
