| The group that chooses the guests, venue, dates and agenda of Bilderberg meetings. Its constitution appears to be chosen by the Bilderberg advisory committee. | |
Not to be confused with the even more select Bilderberg advisory 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 known members over the years, listed on the right. Typically around 25-30 are 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]

List source
The membership list on the right is a superset of the (at least slightly incorrect)[14] "official" lists at Bilderberg Meetings as of 2015-03-08, with a few extra names.[15]Steering committee for 2024 added[16]. Robert Pitti-Ferrandi is mentioned in his biography, but not in the list.
