He will speak on the topic “What industrial policy for France?”
Abstract: Relocalization, made in France, economic sovereignty… Behind these terms lies an ambition that everyone seems to have agreed on in recent years: the need to reindustrialize France. However, it is difficult to see the effects of this in the actual figures. In the era of Trump, trade conflicts, and the necessary ecological transition, it is time to rethink industrial policy and question its objectives: reindustrialize, but to what end?
This conference is free and open to the general public.
