We are delighted that Jonathan Portes will be one of our key note speakers at the Economics Teacher National Conference at the British Library on Wednesday 27th June.

In recent months Jonathan has been a prominent figure in the media commentating on a wide range of macroeconomic issues but notably on the lively debate about how best to drive economic growth and recovery in the UK.

He is currently Director of the National Institute of Economic and Social Research and previously, he was Chief Economist at the Cabinet Office, where he advised the Cabinet Secretary, Gus O’Donnell, and Number 10 Downing Street on economic and financial issues. Before that he held a number of other senior economic policy posts in the UK government. Jonathan writes a blog “Not the Treasury View” that has fast-gained a large following within the economics community and much wider afield. Jonathan is also a prolific user of Twitter!

We are delighted that one of the UK’s top economists will be joining us for a pre-lunch presentation and open floor discussion.
