Welcome
Welcome to the dedicated Emerging Economist Series Website
The Economic Society of Australia (NSW Branch) proudly sponsors the Emerging Economist Series. The series of six luncheons, held at the Reserve Bank of Australia in Sydney, gives young economists the opportunity to discuss critical issues with prominent Australian policymakers, as well as network with colleagues in business, academia and the public service. The luncheons include an interview-style discussion with the key-note speaker, exploring the issues they have faced during their careers and highlighting Australia’s key economic challenges going forward.
The Series has been inspiring, educating and entertaining emerging economists for nine years. Join us for this, our special Ten Year Anniversary Series.
We have a terrific line up of special guests which includes The Hon. Paul Keating; Prof. Deborah Cobb-Clark; Ross Gittins AM; Helen Silver AO; Tom Parry AM and Dr Matthew Butlin. You can read more about our speakers and lunch dates here.
