    New Enlightenment

    Reshaping Capitalism & the Global Order in a Neo-Mercantilist World is the first major international scholarly event to be held at Adam Smith’s historic home, the Panmure House.

    In July 2019, celebrated economists and business leaders gathered for the New Enlightenment conference, held at Adam Smith’s Panmure House in Edinburgh, to discuss Reshaping Capitalism & the Global Order in a Neo-Mercantilist World.

    On July 31, 2020, they reconvened in an online panel discussion to reflect on developments in globalisation and corporate governance. The original event concluded with the signing of the Panmure House Declaration. The 2020 event launched a report card against which the goals of the declaration will be revisited annually.

    Panel discussions were chaired by David Teece and moderated by Harry G. Broadman. Featured speakers included Peter Schwartz, William Lazonick, Orville Schell, John Kay, Sarah Williamson, and Heather J. McGregor.

    View Dr. Teece’s opening remarks and the full event recording.
