Testimonials
Mr. Antonio Tajani
President of the European Parliament (2017-2019)
I come with pleasure a third time because the debates in this prestigious forum have always been very interesting for me.
Mr. Jean-Claude Juncker
President of the European Commission (2014-2019)
Mr. President: your forum is, in fact, a place for debate, for dialogue, that seeks cohesion. The virtues of your forum are exactly the same for Europe as a whole: Europe must be a continent of dialogue, and not confrontation
Ms. Angela Merkel
Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany (2005-2021)
Despite being a very young organization, you have a really interesting mission:to promote social debate, talk about cohesion in our society, about economic strength. I want to congratulate you (José Luis Rodríguez), to your forum, because it doesn't limit this debate to Spain. With this forum Spain shows that its future, like a lot of people think in Germany, is a common future, an European future
Mr. Ángel Gurría
Secretary-General of the OECD (2006-2021)
In appreciation to Foro Nueva Economía for its hospitality and for giving us this superb platform for sharingthoughts on the world economy and Spain.
