Invited by Sabancı University Board of Trustees Member Suzan Sabancı Dinçer, Bakoyannis will give a speech titled “Global Crisis as an Opportunity.”
Dora Bakoyannis will discuss the consequences of the failure to turn crisis into opportunity in the aftermath of the 2008 downfall, and the impact of the slowing of the growth rate in Europe and China on the global economy. In mentioning the positive developments so far, Bakoyannis will explain how the BRIC and Turkish cases are promising examples, and comment on the rumors that the current dynamics of the situation is not all roses, being fragile at its core.
Dora Bakoyannis will emphasize the importance of Europe as the balancer of the global economic system to confront the debt crisis, explaining the need to cast a new role to China with its steady growth, a role that will place the nation as a counterbalance to the global economy under new economic principles. Bakoyannis will also discuss the importance of the achievements that made the Turkish and BRIC economies sustainable in achieving balance across the global economy.
