The 2008 Summit was held on 5 and 6 June and explored how to gain and how to retain one of the most crucial assets in an era of globalisation: brains and the talents they bring with them.
The Munich Economic Summit is a joint initiative of the BMW
Foundation Herbert Quandt and the CESifo
Group Munich —the latter itself a joint initiative of the University of Munich and the Munich-based Ifo Institute for Economic Research—in partnership with The Times of London and The Wall Steet Journal Europe.
