Festival of Economics: Shriti Vadera in conversation with Diane Coyle
By Bristol Ideas
It has been a turbulent year, and 2021 promises just as much economic uncertainty.
Economics Festival Co-Director Diane Coyle will be in conversation with Baroness Shriti Vadera, discussing how to navigate the economic and political currents. Chair designate of Prudential plc and about to complete her term as Chair of Santander UK, Baroness Vadera was a minister in Gordon Brown’s government during the financial crisis.
The conversation will range over how we went from the ‘End of History’ in 1989 to two major economic downturns in little over a decade and predictions of the demise of capitalism.
In our ninth Festival of Economics, co-programmed by Diane Coyle and Richard Davies, economists and experts from around the world debate with each other – and their audiences – some of the key economic questions of our time.
It’s important to us that ideas and debate are affordable to everyone. It’s also important that our commentators, artists, writers, poets and thinkers are paid. This is a Pay What You Can event. You are invited to choose your own contribution to the event, from £0 to £8. All proceeds go towards supporting our speakers and sustaining Festival of Ideas. The option to attend for free is available for all online events.
