SKEMA to host inaugural 'SKEMA Global Risks Meetings' on September 28
In an interconnected world with a globalised economy, understanding and anticipating geopolitical and economic risks are essential for businesses. In this context, SKEMA Business School, through the SKEMA Centre for Global Risks, is organising two roundtable discussions on September 28, 2023. They will bring together experts, researchers, and professionals to address these themes from various angles.
Led by professors Rodolphe Desbordes, professor of economics and Frédéric Munier, a professor of geopolitics at SKEMA, and Rodolphe Desbordes, a professor of economics, the first edition of the "SKEMA Global Risks Meetings" will feature experts from academia as well as leaders from internationally recognised institutions (OECD, CNRS, for example). The event will be divided into two parts, with a focus on "friendshoring" and "reshoring" for each of the roundtables, respectively.
