The debate will focus on the energy transition and its impact on the international economic and geopolitical system. Market reaction and on businesses’ strategies to ensure they reap the benefits of a transition process heavily backed both by European governments and by the US Governmen. An opportunity for growth and, at the same time, a reflection on the change of course impressed on Europe’s economic policy in terms of the energy transition toward a green economy and a greater focus on the struggle against climate change, with particular attention being paid to the funds earmarked in the Recovery Fund. A special focus will also be devoted to the Biden Administration’s strategic choices.
