about this room

Kyriakos Pierrakakis, Greece's Minister of Economy and Finance and President of the Eurogroup, gives a keynote and sits for a conversation on frontier AI as a macroeconomic force. Elias Papaioannou, Professor of Economics at LBS and co-academic director of the Wheeler Institute, moderates.

The ground: AI's effect on productivity, competitiveness, jobs and public finances; Europe's problem financing innovation; what huge AI infrastructure spending does to capital markets, interest rates and sovereign debt; and who gets the gains. Run by the Wheeler Institute with the LBS Data Science & AI Initiative.

Free, 17:15 to 18:45 at the Sammy Ofer Centre on Marylebone Road.

why go

a sitting Eurogroup president on AI capex and sovereign debt, in a lecture theatre rather than a press release. Best for founders and investors who need a view on European AI funding, and people in fintech or policy.
