About the Event

Following the successful experiment on November 2, 2021 at King's College, we are launching a new series of in-person events: 'QuickTalks', a series of workshops composed of short presentations, followed by extensive coffee time and food/refreshments to share ideas.

Please join us for the Second Edition of QuickTalks: “Macroeconometrics and Applied Macro”.

The event is organized by the Macroeconometrics Network and is kindly sponsored by King’s Business School (King’s College London), the Qatar Centre for Global Banking and Finance (King’s College London), and the Bank of England.

All presentations take place in person, but the event can be attended either in person or via Zoom.
