The seminar on relations between Switzerland and the European Union returns this November for its 11th edition. Recent decisions taken by the U.S. administration — from tariffs to strategic withdrawal — have triggered geopolitical and geostrategic upheavals on a global scale. In this context of growing unpredictability, Switzerland and the EU aim to strengthen and expand their cooperation through a new set of bilateral agreements that have just been submitted for consultation.
To better assess these agreements, the seminar invites participants to take a step back and address questions with broad implications for the economic future of both Switzerland and the European Union. Will the euro play a greater role in the international monetary order? Is innovation still possible in Europe? What does the future hold for the free movement of people?
Come and exchange ideas with high-level speakers from the institutional, academic, and private sectors in both Switzerland and the EU.
