This symposium tried to foresee the future of the global economy, find answers related to its growth trajectories after the Covid-19 pandemic, and explore the challenges facing it. It focused on the following topics:
- What will the return to economic activity look like at the global level.
- Will the imbalance between countries and trading blocks increase as the return to economic activities vary in speed?
- New business models as the neo-normal: A look into the post-Covid-19.
- The future of international economic institutions and their role in the post-Covid-19 era.
