The Purdue University Research Center in Economics (PURCE) hosts a number of events each year that highlight our faculty, their research, and the research's ability to help community groups, businesses, and government address economic challenges. The center also hosts visitors to campus for lectures and more intimate conversations; many events are open to the public while some are reserved for students or PURCE partners and supporters.
If you would like to be invited to our events, join our mailing list by sharing your contact information with us by emailing purce@purdue.edu.
PURCE hosts for community, business and government leaders and academic peers a monthly in-person economic policy luncheon, which includes a faculty talk, catered lunch, networking and Q&A.
Students: The center greatly appreciates your interest in these events. However, because PURCE's economic policy luncheons regularly reach capacity, we must reserve registrations for members of the business community. Seats will open up for Economics PhD students only if space is available.
Malpass will explore how the U.S. has deindustrialized, causing dependency on China's economies of scale, and why dependency is an economic and national security risk. Malpass contends many hard steps and big investments are needed to reindustrialize.
David Malpass is a leading economic analyst who served as president of the World Bank Group from 2019-2023. He is a Daniels School Distinguished Fellow of International Finance and the inaugural Fellow of Global Business and Infrastructure at Purdue@DC.
Space is limited for PURCE luncheons, and registration is required. Please register here by noon on Friday, October 2.
