Stagnation Nation? Towards a renewed economic strategy for the 2020s

Session 4 at The Economy 2030 Inquiry conference.

Speakers:

• Dame Carolyn Fairbairn, Former Director-General of the CBI
• Martin Wolf, Chief Economics Commentator at the Financial Times
• Frances O’Grady, General Secretary of the Trades Union Congress
