Leading commentator and influencer on African affairs, Colin Coleman recently presented a speech at the University of Cape Town's Vice-Chancellor's Open Lecture. The speech was titled “From a Two-Speed Society to one that Works for All” and centred on a ten-point action plan to grow an inclusive South African economy and escape a socio-economic crisis. Colin opened his speech by stating that South Africa is in trouble. However, this is just a prefix to the rest of his speech in which he lays out an action plan to right all the wrongs we are currently facing. As one of South Africa's most prominent investment bankers and an expert on the economic development challenges and opportunities across Africa, Colin is forward-thinking, action-oriented and deeply passionate about South African economics and current affairs. On this week's Business Unusual podcast, Topco Media CEO, Ralf Fletcher, sits down with Colin for a dynamic and informative discussion ranging from how we can address South Africa's current challenges to what's needed to drive a culture of entrepreneurship. Colin's insights are equally optimistic and realistic as he dives into the three main challenges which South Africa is facing at this point and how we can combat them. Among other topics, Colin and Ralf discuss the notion of debt spiral, how we can make the most of our dynamic economy and the problem with rigid ideological boundaries (To view Colin's full speech, visit the link below). Colin Coleman is a South African banker and public figure. He currently holds a position as a Senior Fellow and Lecturer at Yale University's Jackson Institute for Global Affairs. A former partner of Goldman Sachs, Colin was Chief Executive Officer of Goldman Sachs for Sub-Saharan Africa. He was head of the Goldman Sachs South Africa office from 2000. In 2008, he was named head of the Investment Banking Division for Sub-Saharan Africa. Colin Coleman Lecture

Turin is a city that has represented for Italy what Detroit has represented for the US: the national prototype of the Fordist city, the "One Company Town". It is a city whose industrial past has heavily conditioned its transformation process, because of the material (brownfield) and immaterial (socio-economic and cultural structures and dynamics) legacies. However, Turin is a city that has had - in the past 25 years - a peculiar trajectory in the Italian and European panoramas, since it paved its way out of different economic crisis thanks to a mix of innovative land-use and strategic plans, urban design experiences, and regeneration policies. In the current phase, the city seems to have lost much of the drive that has allowed recent changes and seems to be struggling to find a clear way out from post-Fordism, even if we may still witness different and interesting public and private initiatives. Marco Santangelo is a Professor of Geography at Politecnico di Torino, Interuniversity Department of Regional and Urban Studies and Planning (DIST). His visit at our Faculty is a part of the research project „Spatio-consumer behaviors of students and the development of postindustrial cities” led by Department of Regional Economics and Environment, and financed by National Science Centre, Poland.
The European Union has reached its tenth year of a cycle of financial and economic turmoil that started in mid-2007. In this Open Lecture, based on the observation of recent developments including those related to the Italian banking sector and Brexit in 2016, Nicolas Véron will argue that a new policy cycle is likely to start this year. This new cycle will allow for less emphasis on emergency crisis management and more on the build-up of a sustainable framework to bring the European economy back to normal functioning. While stopping short of currently unrealistic visions of fiscal and political union and EU treaty change, this framing implies significant further changes in the areas of banking, capital markets, fiscal accountability, and structural economic policies. About Nicolas Véron Nicolas Véron cofounded Bruegel in 2002-05, joined the Peterson Institute for International Economics in 2009, and is currently employed on equal terms by both organizations. His research is primarily about financial systems and financial services policy, on which he has published widely since 2002. He has been a witness at numerous parliamentary hearings in the US Senate, European Parliament, and in several European member states; a financial policy expert for the European Commission and Court of Auditors; and a consultant to the International Monetary Fund and World Bank. He is also an independent board member of the global derivatives trade repository arm of DTCC, a financial infrastructure company that operates on a non-profit basis. A graduate of France’s Ecole Polytechnique and Ecole des Mines, his earlier experience includes senior positions in the French government and private sector in the 1990s and early 2000s. In September 2012, Bloomberg Markets included Véron in its yearly global “50 Most Influential” list, with reference to his early advocacy of European banking union.
