Inspired by the London School of Economics' school motto Rerum Cognoscere Causas – "to understand the causes of things", the RCC Conference will bring together a range of diverse stakeholders including world-renowned academics, top managers and consultants, influential policy makers and selected CEMS students to understand the pressing issues and future challenges for Europe from a business perspective.
This year’s conference theme will be “New World Order – What’s next for Europe?” In light of the fact that the Western world is fast losing its privileged position and whilst new actors assert themselves, the future of Europe and its economic dominance seem to be at stake.
Which economic and political role will Europe play in the future? Which trends are likely to influence the emerging new world order? And particularly, how can Europe overcome its current political and economic crisis?
With a combination of lectures, skills seminars and presentations, the RCC Conference in 2014 will shed light on different future scenarios. In this regards, we also will be hosting a panel discussion with selected experienced panel members. The panel will include policy makers, researchers and corporate representatives.
