Unshackling Europe’s Economy: what holds us back?

Tue 24th September 2024

Thon EU Hotel

This timely conference will debate Europe's economic future and the barriers to achieving greater competitiveness, productivity and prosperity. The opening panel will delve into the complexities of industrial strategy, explore the impact of zombie companies, and discuss the power of 'creative destruction.' Following the Letta report on the Single Market, and in anticipation of the much-awaited Draghi report on European competitiveness, the conference will examine the options for reversing Europe’s poor economic performance. A session on ‘Rethinking the Green Deal’ will consider the impact of high energy costs and ever more stringent environmental regulations on European economies and asses the political, economic and technological opportunities to change tack in the wake of farmer protests and warnings from industrialists. The final session on ‘Artificial Intelligence and harnessing Europe’s innovative potential’ will address the impact of low levels of investment in R&D, underperforming capital markets and precautionary regulation on both European tech startups and investment by businesses more generally to achieve improved productivity from implementing technological breakthroughs.

Sessions include:
