key challenges and policy priorities for the European economy. The 2021 BEF will consider approaches to building the post-COVID-19 economy we want to create.

Germany; Jacinda Ardern, Prime Minister of New Zealand; Christine Lagarde, President of the European Central Bank; and Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Director-General of the World Trade
