We are thrilled to discuss the Green Deal as proposed by the EU Commission on the coming Tuesday with important figures from all kinds of fields. The seminar is aimed at bringing light into the discussion about the Green Deal. How much additional money is actually proposed? What are the economic effects of such propositions and what would the effects of climate change and the German industry be?

These questions are definitely not easy to answer but we are confident to bring the right people together to at least come close. In three separate panels, we will discuss the economic effects, how to make a Green Deal tangible also for ordinary people and last but not least how the Deal will impact the German industry and especially the automobile sector.

We will be glad to address these highly important topics with experts like Nora Hesse, Barbara Praetorius, Jens Südekum, Jakob von Weizsäcker, Peter Bofinger, Achim Truger and many many more.

ABOUT EUROPE

KNOWLEDGE BASE

The euro was planned during a period in which economic policy making was driven by a deep belief in market liberalism and the near impossibility of systemic financial crises. This belief has been brought into question since the euro crisis, which showed that panics do happen. New thinking needs to focus on developing mechanisms to protect eurozone countries from such panics and to foster economic convergence between members.
