The event
The Rome Investment Forum 2017 brings back together representatives of the European and global business and financial communities, regulators, policy makers and civil society. The 2017 – and fourth – edition of the Forum takes place at a turning point for Europe and the world economy. The reasons are many, and relate to a set of different and interacting coordinates: geopolitical, social, institutional, regulatory and economic.
Following the structure of the three previous editions, the conference will start from discussing the state of the art of the EU policy processes, and their next steps. The Forum will enter into the specific content of the Economic and Monetary Union, the prospects for the Eurozone, the implementation of financial reforms such as the Banking Union and the Capital Markets Union, the performance and evolution of the Juncker Investment Plan, and the broader role of investment for enhancing competitiveness and innovation. The final sessions of the forum will provide a general view of the need for a deeper, wider, and wiser integration, within and beyond the European Union, focusing on sustainability, inclusion and resilience. If the EU proves to be able to design and implement such reforms, and national policies and business strategies support and accompany such reform efforts, there is now a unique opportunity that Europe not only will provide more stability, peace and prosperity to its peoples, but will also take its place in a shared global leadership, worthy of its history values and capabilities.
The event will take place in Rome, at Scuderie di Palazzo Altieri, on December 15-16, 2017. It will be held in English and Italian. Simultaneous translation provided.
