Meet
Engage with senior economic and political decision-makers from France, Europe and beyond, in a setting built for conversation rather than audience.
Paris Economic Forum 2027
Let’s build tomorrow’s economy.
One day a year when Europe’s decision-makers sit at the same table. Third edition, by invitation.
The 2027 edition
French excellence as the setting, European decision-making as the subject.
The Paris Economic Forum is an independent, invitation-only gathering of CEOs, ministers, investors and founders. For its third edition, the Forum returns to Paris on 1 December 2027 for a full day of keynotes, Coalition sessions and private meetings, under the Chatham House rule.
The day closes with the PEF Gala Dinner and the PEF Prize ceremony: the synthesis of a year of work, and the opening of the next.
Why attend
One day worth a year of meetings.
Confront
Hear leading economists and policy-makers, then test the positions prepared by the Coalitions throughout the year.
Shape
Contribute to the agenda for Europe’s next economic cycle: competitiveness, sovereignty, growth financing, industrial and ecological renewal.
Continue
Carry the day into the Gala Dinner, and the initiatives it identifies into the Board Dinners and working sessions of 2028.
