During the spring edition of Impact’22, taking place on May 11th and 12th in Poznań, Martin Sandbu, a respected economic commentator who writes for the FT on a daily basis, will be speaking. At the Financial Times, Sandbu is responsible for coverage of events related to European economics, politics, and business ethics.

Already on May 11th and 12th in Poznań, during the Impact’22 conference, a distinguished group of speakers will take the Impact stage, including the well-known and respected journalist Martin Sandbu, who has been writing on topics at the intersection of economics, politics, and business ethics for the Financial Times since 2009. He has covered issues of international economic policy, such as the Eurozone debt crisis and the transformation of global financial regulations.

Sandbu also writes for Free Lunch, the Financial Times’ weekly newsletter on economic policy.

Before joining the Financial Times, he worked in academia and political consulting. For three years, he lectured on ethics and corporate responsibility at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. He also lectured and conducted research at Harvard University and Columbia. He also advised governments and non-governmental organizations on natural resources and economic development. He currently serves as a Senior Fellow at the Zicklin Center for Business Ethics Research at Wharton.

His lectures on business ethics at Wharton were published in 2011 in book form by Pearson Prentice Hall, titled Just Business: Arguments in Business Ethics.

He is the author of works on business ethics and economics. In 2015, Martin published his first book, “Europe’s Orphan, the Future of the Euro and the Politics of Debt (2015),” in defense of the Euro. His latest work is titled “The Economics of Belonging (2020).” In it, the author outlines a new approach to economic policy that would address the causes and consequences of inequality in the contemporary West.

In her review of the book, Diane Coyle wrote:

– The book’s true argument emerges in the second half, namely that a set of radical but implementable policy actions contains a prescription for resolving inequality. And if they were to be implemented, Sandbu believes globalization would benefit everyone and reduce populist polarization.

Martin studied Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at the University of Oxford, and subsequently completed his doctorate in Political Economy at Harvard University.
