Amparo Moraleda, Enrico Letta in conversation with Frederick Studemann

Europe is at a crossroads. As geopolitical tensions rise and technological change accelerates, can Europe move fast enough to remain competitive while staying true to its values?

Enrico Letta, former Prime Minister of Italy, Dean at IE School of Politics, Economics and Global Affairs and author of the landmark report on the future of the Single Market, joins Amparo Moraleda, recently named President of Airbus, one of Europe's leading business and industrial voices, in conversation with Frederick Studemann, Literary Editor of the Financial Times. Together they will explore how Europe can strengthen its competitiveness in an era defined by artificial intelligence, advanced manufacturing, defence, research and innovation.

From Ukraine's path towards European integration to new forms of cooperation with strategic partners, the discussion will examine whether a more flexible, "multi-speed" Europe can become a source of resilience rather than fragmentation. How can Europe accelerate decision-making, foster innovation ecosystems and build the capabilities needed to thrive in an increasingly competitive world?
