We hope you will be able to attend this important event, which is the inaugural address in the “EU-US Distinguished Business and Politics Lecture Series” co-sponsored by the McCombs School (Center for International Business Education and Research (CIBER)) and the College of Liberal Arts (Center for European Studies). Ambassador Vale de Almeida is a thoughtful and interesting speaker, as you can see, for example, in this recent clip from C-SPAN’s Washington Journal http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/Stablit and the future of the Euro is something that everyone in business needs to assess.
