As part of our 2022-2023 “World in Transition” Global Speaker series, this fall’s Global Economy Speaker Collection will focus on the biggest issues impacting local businesses, nonprofits, and community organizations today.
Shifting Powers in Europe
The death of Queen Elizabeth II comes on the heels of years of political turmoil in the UK and EU. How might these changes shape European, Western and world politics in the decade to come? Join us for a conversation with Matthew Barzun, who will share his insight into European/US relations as former US Ambassador to the United Kingdom and to Sweden.
ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Matthew Barzun has always been fascinated about how we can stand out and fit in at the same time. He helped countries do both when he served as US Ambassador to the United Kingdom and to Sweden. He helped citizens do both as National Finance Chair for Barack Obama by pioneering new ways for people to have a stronger voice in politics. And he helped tech consumers do both as an entrepreneur when he helped start CNET Networks in the early 90’s.
Barzun was raised on the East Coast, started his career on the West Coast, and settled in the middle in Louisville, Kentucky with his wife, Brooke, and their three children.
