THE GLOBAL AGENDA 2018 │ The Economist Events

January 30, 2018

Date of the event: March 1st 2018
Venue of the event: London

From Brexit to Donald Trump and now in elections across Europe, a wave of populism is sweeping the Western world. Subdued investment and tech-driven automation threaten millions of jobs the world over, suggesting that the income inequality which has fuelled popular discontent may yet continue to grow. Is globalisation failing the people who need it most?
Chaired by Zanny Minton Beddoes, editor-in-chief of The Economist, The Global Agenda will bring together chief executive officers, entrepreneurs and leaders from politics and civil society for a frank discussion. Can business be a catalyst for a more inclusive brand of capitalism?
