RENCONTRES EUROPE ET INTERNATIONAL

Uncertainty surrounds the future of the European Union and its place in the world. The crisis set in motion a whole range of initiatives and institutional changes and in Europe, both at the EU28 and euro area levels. These now have to blossom into a solid and durable edifice.

A challenge is therefore to make sure that the next steps in European integration live up to the economic, institutional, political, social and governance challenges that Europe is facing.

In that context, CEPII and France Stratégie have launched a series of monthly events – lunchtalks - about Europe with the aim to bring together officials, academics, as well as practitioners and corporates around a relevant speaker selected for his relevance for European matters.
Joaquín Almunia on "Competition Policy and Competitiveness : Complementary or Antagonistic ?''

Presentation
Joaquín Almunia, Vice-President of the European Commission in charge of Competition Policy
Discussant:
Elie Cohen, Research Director at French CNRS
