The second edition of CEPR’s annual flagship symposium brought together leading voices in European and global economics to discuss the most pressing issues facing the global economy. Academic presentations as well as policy panels and keynote lectures were organised across a 6-day programme with several parallel streams.
Each programme area and research and policy network under the auspices of CEPR had the opportunity to present their latest research, and there was a competitive call for PhD student posters which were presented during the lunch breaks each day.
