Risky Business: Europe's Economic (In-)Security
English 180
The pandemic and the war in Ukraine have shown Europe’s dependencies in critical areas. Since then, there has been a lot of talk about “de-risking”: mitigating risks and limiting strategic dependencies. However, it’s still not clear what this would mean for Europe. How much de-risking is necessary to safeguard Europe’s economic security and when does de-risking itself become a risk to the economy?  //INFO: Bring hiking shoes and water. In case of heavy rain, the session is going to take place on the upper floor of the elementary school.

If we want to ensure our continued prosperity, we need a competitive business environment within a strong Europe. Prioritizing industrial policies and fostering a robust capital market must no longer be seen as alien concepts. What concrete ideas can move us forward as a society?

Climate Debate: State vs. Market – Finding Common Ground
German 90
The climate debate has become increasingly polarised. While global science agrees on the huge challenge ahead, politics doesn’t seem to agree on a way forward, thus delaying urgently needed policy decisions. One of the key questions is: Can “the market” fix this? Or do we need strong state intervention to prevent an impending climate catastrophe? Join this completely new, inspiring, provoking debate and see for yourself, whether the panelists can change the audience’s opinion. Yes, there are different value systems. Yes, there are different opinions and approaches. Let’s find common ground on a constructive way forward in climate matters for a climate neutral and economically thriving continent.
