Jo Antoons, Partner at Fragomen, will speak on this panel examining how international labour mobility can help alleviate Europe’s ongoing skills shortages. The discussion will highlight how well-designed migration policies can foster economic growth, protect workers, and balance fiscal realities amid a global race for talent.
