Aspen Annual Conference 2024
November 14
from 9:00 | Prague Crossroads Centre
Values and Ethics: Are We Ready for the Future?
The Aspen Annual Conference brings together transatlantic leaders to discuss key political, economic, and societal developments based on expert studies provided by our partners. We focus on topics that are relevant not only to current governments but also seek to foster broader consensus beyond a single election cycle. Open dialogue across our societies is the only way to overcome high polarization of opinions and stand united in support of Western values.
