The 4th instalment of the Emerging Economists Seminar Series promises another great line up presenters.

By bringing together emerging economists from business, academia and the public service, the Emerging Economists Seminar Series provides a unique opportunity for networking and discussion amongst economists who will be facing key economic challenges in the coming years.

The Emerging Economists Seminar Series is six bi-monthly luncheon seminars held at the Reserve Bank of Australia, with some of Australia’s leading economists and contributors to economic debate. The 2011 series will be opened by Prof. Bruce Chapman and followed by other esteemed presenters including Terry McCrann, Prof. Ross Garnaut, Christopher Joye, Senator the Hon. Penny Wong, and Bill Evans. Each speaker will draw on their experiences in public policy, government and business, and provide insights into the emerging issues that economists are likely to face in the future.

The Emerging Economists Seminar Series is targeted to early career economists that demonstrate leadership skills in the profession. The individuals that nominate will participate in all six seminars in the series. Places are limited, so please register early.
