27th Annual Economist Government Roundtable
24/10/2023 @ 8:00 πμ - 26/10/2023 @ 6:00 μμ
Overview
A pandemic, a war in Europe, geopolitical upheavals, energy and environmental crises: the world has come across unpredictable risks recently, while threats which were considered eliminated seem to be back. At the same time, important transformations shaping the 21st century are currently in process, signifying an era of great transition:
● While the war in Ukraine has led to a fragmented and polarised world, at the same time we see countries striving for democracy, peace and co-operative solutions.
● The role of hydrocarbons will still prevail for a certain period, however green transition and electrification are gathering pace.
● Technology continues to radically transform the world, making digital health, digitalisation of government services and AI chatbots parts of everyday reality.
Moreover, unity and solidarity have become a priority in the European Union, while 2023 is an important election year for Greece. The country’s performance in the investment and business landscape, the progress in the digital and green transition, but also priorities in the labour market and the prospects for the younger generation will be –among others– at the centre of the discussions during the 27th Annual Economist Government Roundtable entitled “The great transition: geopolitics, environment, technology”, which has been scheduled to take place in Athens (October 24th-26th 2023, Grand Resort Lagonissi & October 30th 2023, Athenaeum Intercontinental, Athens – Prime Minister’s Gala Dinner).
High-ranking government and state officials and prominent personalities from politics, business, finance, international institutions and academia will join us once again for a fruitful and meaningful dialogue.
