Clark Presented at EU Open Days 2015 Conference

Posted October 14, 2015

Jennifer Clark, an associate professor in the School of Public Policy, spoke at the EU OPEN DAYS 2015 conference held in Brussels. Clark, along with fellow speakers Patrizio Bianchi (Emilia-Romagna, Italy) and Lisa De Propis (University of Birmingham, UK), discussed the phenomena of “Regional Manufacturing Renaissance.”

The description of the program is as follows:

“This Open Days University ‘policy forum’ session brings together key emerging themes around distributed manufacturing, reshoring/offshoring, global value chains, open innovation, and the most recent developments in industrial policy thinking.

It builds on the earlier Open Days University sessions on smart specialisation and industrial policy but critically moves the discussion on in the context of recent developments in advanced and ‘distributed’ manufacturing and the opportunities these may yield for regional ‘rebalancing’ and manufacturing renaissance.”
