OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Global challenges are focusing the minds of leaders across the world: tackling climate change, delivering a successful energy transition, navigating rising trade tensions and AI’s potential (positive and negative) for drastic change.
How can UK business and government chart a course through these challenges and improve our economic fortunes? Is growth the solution, and if so, where does it come from?
Economist and Chief Executive of the Confederation of British Industry Rain Newton Smith works with business and government to answer these questions. In this evening’s event she will reflect on the qualities decision makers need to weather the unpredictable economic storms ahead and on her own leadership experience representing the business community in the UK.
This is the second talk in a new termly series of discussions with industry leaders and policymakers, run jointly by the Oxford Martin School and the Saïd Business School.
The talk will be followed by a drinks reception.
