Resilience and Groth in a New World Order: Geopolitical and economic landscape

  • Mehr Information

The global geopolitical and economic landscape is being reshaped, creating both challenges and opportunities. This new era of increased volatility, evolving alliances, and shifting trade flows demand new approaches to resilience, competitiveness and long-term growth. We are in a new world order. The global map has been redrawn. We are now operating in a new global order defined by strategic competition between the US, Europe, China, and rising powers such as India. This realignment is transforming policy frameworks, international relations, supply chains and capital flows, creating a more complex landscape of risk and opportunity.

With high-level speakers from politics, finance, and industry, this discussion will explore how Swedish businesses and policymakers can strengthen resilience and secure long-term growth.

Rethinking European defence in a new security era

  • Uhrzeit: 9:00 9:45 Uhr
  • Veranstalter: SIEPS
  • Ort: Strandvägen, plats 521, Europahuset

Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, continued instability in Europe’s neighbourhood, and growing uncertainty about the future of transatlantic security guarantees have intensified pressure on European states to assume greater responsibility for their own defence. Questions about the credibility and functioning of NATO lead to intensified discussions about both about what role the European Union can play in the area of security and defence as well as the various different formats that can contribute to strengthening European security.

Is rebuilding Ukraine a shared responsibility for Europe and the world? What does rebuild Ukraine mean? Who will be there? At the same time, how can Ukraine, through its experience, expertise, and resilience, contribute to Europe’s future security, democratic values, and crisis preparedness.
