Young Fabian Networks Launch Reception |
|
City of London venue (tbc)
Thursday 25 March - 5.15pm to 7pm
This lively and engaging evening drinks reception will officially launch the Young Fabian ‘Technology and Society’ and ‘Future of Finance’ Networks.
Lord Drayson, Minister for Science and Innovation at the Department for Business, is providing the keynote address, followed by Q&A between attendees and a high-level panel and a drinks reception. Rachel Reeves, PPC for Leeds West and former Bank of England Economist; Sam White, Adviser to the Chancellor of the Exchequer; and Will Oulton, Director of the Responsible Investment Unit (FTSE Environmental Index) at the London Stock Exchange, have all been invited to speak on the panel. The event aims to bring together around 120 progressive individuals with expertise across the broad range of finance, technology, engineering, science, and innovation.
We hope the Networks will help provide a forum for discussion, but also help bring energy and intellectual ammunition to the effort to find progressive solutions to the global policy challenges we face. We hope you can join us.
