Prof. David Audretsch from Indiana University has agreed to be a guest speaker at this year's Welcome Reception. Following his lecture, the "Brandt School Graduation Prizes" will be awarded for the first time. 

The publication, which will be presented on this day, was created in collaboration with alumni and researchers of the Brandt School. It sets out in search of political innovation 40 years after Willy Brandt and his "North-South Commission" published their famous report. The new anthology now deals with topics such as migration, peace and development policy against the background of growing populism. It will be presented by some of its authors and will be discussed during the event.
