Event Description
The Economic Ideas Forum is an annual high-level conference that brings together European Commissioners, members of the European Parliament, economic experts, business leaders and other influential stakeholders from around the world. The Forums provide an opportunity to consider innovative ideas and propose solutions to the economic challenges facing the EU economy. Every year, over 250 participants attend the conference. Previous Forums have been successfully held in Bratislava (2014), Helsinki (2013), Dublin (2012), London (2011) and Madrid (2010). Among the topics for discussion at this years’ edition of EIF will be the sharing economy, balancing energy security with climate change commitments, the digital economy as a driver of global trade and utilising political reform as a driver of economic change in the EU’s neighbourhood.
