Details: The Ministry of Economy, the Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce and the FEDIL, in collaboration with PwC, are collaborating to organise the 2014 edition of the Economy Days, which will be held under the topic: #RéinventerLuxembourg.
A few months after the advanced governmental elections, the annual Economy Days will be steeped in an economic and political context marked by the new government’s economic programme. The conference will take place on Tuesday 4 February in the afternoon and Wednesday 5 February in the morning at the Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce, and will consist of two segments.
The first session will focus on the economic programme of the new government and on the objectives that the new coalition has set in terms of Luxembourg’s economic development. Economists and decision-makers will confer on the key issues the country is facing and the potential drivers for sustainable growth.
The following morning will see informed discussions about the promotion of Luxembourg abroad and the main factors determining the country’s attractivity.
Economists and keynote speakers will be encouraged to comment on and debate the issues at stake during the two days. Information on the agenda and the conference will be regularly updated in the «Agenda» and «Biography» sections of the website as well as on twitter @JE2014_Lux.
