Join us for the most 

important business event 

for Portugal in 2014!

The Economist Event’s The Lisbon Summit will bring policymakers together with business leaders and investors for a day of debate and dialogue around the tough choices facing the country, addressing the questions at the heart of Portugal's dilemma.

Three years into recession, Portugal has recently unveiled an ambitious stimulus programme to revive its economy. The government wants to reduce corporation tax, produce incentives to attract more overseas companies, cut down on bureaucracy and provide cheap financing for smaller firms.

While the budget deficit has shrunk from 12.6% of GDP in 2008 to 1.5% in 2012, the country is still undergoing a severe economic adjustment. GDP is shrinking, unemployment is growing and the country's EU/IMF adjustment programme imposes tough fiscal measures and structural reforms. 

CONFIRMED: Prime Minister Pedro Passos Coelho will join us to discuss the government's reform agenda and Portugal's economic, political and social outlook.

Topics to be discussed at The Lisbon Summit include:

• How to reform the state and achieve sustainable public finances? 
• How to rebalance Portugal's economy to position it for growth?
• How can technological innovation fundamentally change businesses and create exciting new opportunities for Portuguese firms?
• How can Portugal benefit from opportunities in high-growth markets?
